A crook posed as a G4S security guard to trick bank staff into handing over cash boxes with £150,000 inside.

The criminal strolled into a Santander's Brixton branch in a uniform kitted out with both a helmet and visor, although sources claimed it wasn't even a G4S uniform.

The man reportedly showed a fake ID and took two boxes at once, which is against regulation.

Another source said questions had to be asked as they claimed the uniform wasn't even a G4S one.

The criminal may have had a getaway driver waiting to rush him away from the scene in south London.

Staff at the Santander branch only became worried it was a con when the crook didn't return to sign for the six boxes that had £25,000 each in them.
