The man was claiming to be there to clean our house. His nationality is Indian, he wasn't dressed as a cleaner and his vehicle was an old Subaru. Apparently he advised us that we left a key for him in our letterbox to clean our house(which we didn't). We obviously didn't hire a cleaner and the whole scenario screamed of this guy being dodgy! Be aware of people hanging around your neighbourhood and going house to house.
