Police are warning elderly Eastwood residents to be on the lookout for a man selling overpriced goods.
The white man – believed to be in his mid-30s and about 5ft 10ins tall – is known to police for targeting vulnerable members of the public on their doorsteps.
Police community support officer Teresa Billington said: "Please be wary of persons selling items at your door and do not let them into your home.
"Nobody is allowed to sell door to door without a pedlar's licence."
