They’ve got a bunch of folding chairs and tables, telecomm equipment, and no company name. Found them using our guest Wifi to access a bunch of scam sites and banks in other countries.
Might help to know what country you’re in, or continent even?
How does anyone expect to get very nation specific advice like this without giving any hint as to where they’re from - besides it probably being a country that probably has many English speakers as a second language if not first…
No, no. Didn’t you hear? The Internet is just the US.
Hell, I grew up in and currently live in Texas and even I know better than that.
Forward their info to one of the scam baiters like Jim browning.
This is probably the solution that will actually result in something being done. Give it to multiple in fact. Jim Browning, Scammer Payback, Kit Boga. Increase your chances.
Yeah and I feel like since you control their internet access, you could help the baiters pull off some extra zesty fun
Sounds like a great opportunity to intercept traffic to scam sites and steal their credentials from a site they think they control. Not really legal though.
I think the fact that the company is illegally using their networking equipment might make it legal.
Don’t forget to say “no infringement intended, all rights go to their owners” to fully protect yourself from any charges.
FTC
If this is America… Don’t depend on the government for justice.
Some kid 50 years from now is going to write a paper on the moral dilemma of calling ICE on a scam center.
OP will warn them, and they’ll end up charging him with the crime.
Yeah, specially if it’s his WiFi they are using.
Even if they do end up busting the scammers, OP can expect being harassed and have some of his stuff confiscated for investigation.
How recently did you learn not to trust the US government that you think it is news to anyone?
They’re asking where you report fraud.
The FTC is where you report fraud.
To be fair, Brandan Carr is who Trump has running the FCC. He is corrupt as fuck, he’s made some bonehead moves, and he drafted large parts of project 2025.
Results may vary if you’re reporting this to his FCC.
To be a catty bitch: oh no shit?
The comments by Americans recently recognizing their shitty government and issuing sincere warnings to people who have been aware of the American peril for decades reminds me of student drivers earnestly explaining how important turn signals work to their driving instructors.

Wait, what?
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is not the same organization as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
Andrew Ferguson, chair of the FTC, was originally appointed to the Commission by Biden in 2023 and was made chair by Trump this year. He’s definitely softer on big corporate monopolies and mergers than his predecessor, but has not been quite as much a blowhard as one would normally expect from Trump’s picks.
You’re right. I’m an idiot.
