Be aware of door knockers
Police are warning residents to be wary of people that come door knocking.
There are still numerous reports of people claiming to be ‘looking for a friend’ or a ‘lost pet’, ‘conducting a survey’ or offering home maintenance services like lawn mowing and gardening. Many of these people are believed not to be genuine and are possibly scouting the property and home.
