POLICE are warning residents to be on the look out for a group of suspicious males who have been moving around the Winchester area.

The group of men, who travel in a navy blue van, are offering housing and garden services to residents for cash.

One such incident includes when the men offered their maintenance services to a lady who lives on Clifton Road.  After completing the messy works, they demanded £500 in cash for it.

Hampshire Constabulary is urging locals to be aware and not let the men do any work in and around your premises.

If you see anybody acting suspiciously, contact 101.
