Bootleg blockbusters were seized after police swooped on dodgy DVD dealers at a car boot sale.

Police and Sutton Council's trading standards officers seized almost 100 pirate films including copies of blockbusters like Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie action film Mr and Mrs Smith and Abba-inspired musical Mamma Mia when they raided stalls at a car boot sale at Beddington Park on Sunday.

The raid is the second successful swoop of the summer after police seized illegal goods at a similar sale at St Philomena's Girls' Catholic School in Carshalton in June.

Police also seized fake Hello Kitty jewellery and ordered 10 traders to take counterfeit DVDs and fake mobile phone covers off display. Traders caught out were warned and given advice on how to stay within the law.

Councillor Richard Clifton, the council's lead member for trading standards, said: "Counterfeit goods are not a good deal. They are often of very poor quality and in some cases can be very dangerous.

"By all means go along to a car boot sale and find a bargain, but steer clear of the dodgy dealers."

Inspector Neil Tyre added: "We want the public to come forward if they have any information about people trading in counterfeit goods and where counterfeit goods are being stored or sold. We work closely in partnership with Sutton's trading standards and will continue to take joint action against the culprits."

People shopping at car boot sales have been advised not to trust any deals that look too good to be true and to inspect the artwork and look for authentic holograms on any DVDs they do want to buy to avoid getting caught out.
