A man has denied allegedly tricking a 92-year-old into paying £260 for a fake Covid-19 vaccine.
David Chambers, 33, is accused of administering the fake vaccine to the victim at her Surbiton home on December 30.
The victim allowed him into her home after he said he was from the NHS and there to administer the vaccine.
She said she was jabbed in the arm with a "dart-like implement" before being charged.
