It's just after 1 AM here. He's been there for the better part of an hour so far. I have fuzzy cellphone pics taken from my 3rd story window if anybody wants them; they don't really show much unfortunately.

I'd like to screw with the guy somehow, but am not sure on how best to go about it. It's quite obvious he's stealing internet. To what cause, I'm not sure.

So what. I steal internet all the time when I'm driving around. People should learn the secure their networks if they don't want me browsing Yahoo! on their connection.

The police have been notified. They are downloading information from his GPS at this time.

There is considerable concern as to whether the laptop will survive under the combined weight of the car and the guy.

Why don't you go out there with a bat and confront him. That'll definately catch him off guard.

I'm not too worried about him getting onto my network, thanks :p

Still, I was hoping for some more creative suggestions. My girlfriend is very creeped out and would prefer I call the cops, but I think that's just a little overkill.

Water balloons. If no balloons are available, plastic bread bags or produce bags work also.

We had a guy like this that would park in our parking lot at work to use an unsecured network at a nearby apartment complex. He was using it to view kiddy pr0n, apparently.

go out and start cleaning his windshield, then tell him he owes you 3 dollars.

LOL, I like this one. :thumbsup: Then start yelling at him and calling him a thief when he doesn't pay up.

I can understand getting on somebodies internet for 5 minutes if you are driving around and need directions, but an hour is excessive and amounts to stealing.

This late at night out trolling for unsecured wireless networks? I can only assume he's downloading child porn. Alert the authorities!

That's when the guy would show up at my workplace to download the stuff. He would park outside for three or four hours at a time in the middle of the night.

When the cops used to park outside my friends house, we'd have coffee and donuts delivered to them.

Follow him there and see what he looks like. If he's in his 50's and white, definitely alert the authorities.

It's not over yet. The FBI will be over soon to arrest you for downloading kiddy porn.
