THOUSANDS of illegal vapes worth £400k found hidden at company building after tip-off

Police officers and council trading standards officers busted the building - owned by an unknown company - after receiving a complaint. They found thousands of illegal disposable vapes and e-liquids hidden behind shutters.

A criminal investigation has now been launched. Salford Council said 85,000 illegal vaping products have been seized in the area since January. "In addition to taking action, such as prosecution, we can investigate money made illegally, in order to recover the proceeds of crime. If people have any concerns about products or sales to under 18s, they can report information to the Citizens Advice Consumer Service on 0808 223 1133 so it can be investigated.
