how did they get in? Knocked on the door?
My door is always locked because of these kind of people.

Yep. That’s one of the many lessons to be learned here.
It’s also worth noting that folks should have a way to communicate with someone at the door without opening the door (I’m not talking about a door chain, either. Anyone of even moderate strength could break one of those.)
As for me, I’m low tech. just tell them to go near a window. Then I talk to them through the window.
It was weird. When I first moved into my home 15 years go, I got a lot of weirdoes coming by knocking for some reason or another. I think it was because the house was vacant for awhile while it was on the market, and they were trying to see if anyone was home. The visits stopped shortly after that.
