| Need Advice / Help
I know this is OT but I'm not sure where to post this exactly.
Heres the deal.
I have a friend who suspects that he is being targeted by his neighbors.
They would put mud and grass in his cars fuel pump.
One day they put sugar in there I believe.
Now, he doesn't have evidence of any of this but he does have legit reasons to suspect his neighbor.
Honestly, this wouldn't bother me if I was near him, I'd just help him kick their ass but seeing as how hes far away, there isn't much I can do to help.
Thats why I'm turning to you guys.
Aside from calling the cops, what can he do, before these faggots do anything else or hurt my friend.
I'm not looking for vigilante justice, but without proof, the cops can't do much.
Any advice is appreciated.

Night vision cameras; put them in and/or around his car.
Alternatively try some kind of ink or paint tray on the ground around his car? Anyone who wants to fuck with it has to step in/on it. Posted via RS Mobile |

Fuel pump? That's an awful lot of work to go through simply to clog up the pump.
Now if you're talking about the filler neck, that's a different story. lol.

Get one of those really sensitive car alarms?
But then again those would probably go off everytime a loud car drove by.

Any advice is appreciated. | build up evidence. aside from the mud and grass, what else are they doing? are they stealing, vandalizing?
definitely set up a surveilance camera and put it on 24 hour record. then intentionally set up things that will lure his neighbour out of his hole. once you have 3 - 4 incident recorded, call the police and press charges. better yet, get a lawyer and get paid.

thank you all for the advice. I think U-spy store might have something that we're looking for.
We'll try that out first.
Thanks again.

I would suggest a "pathing" of the surveillance, towards the neighbour in question. As this will directly tie them into their little scheme.
But, you'll need really high-end stuff to capture face for night-cams. or else you'll just get the body shapes and them doing the act. Hard to capture, unless you get the "walk in, do the dirty work, walk out."

Does he have a garage that maybe he can park sideways outside of with the fuel pumping facing in? I know it sounds retarded but from your story I'm assuming he lives in a house, but just does not have space to park it in the garage. So if you park the side with the fuel cap against some wall, or as close as possible to the garage, they won't be able to get inside.
Try a simple visual deterrence and leave a little note on top of the fuel cap and write "Smile, cameras have been installed facing the car and will be sent to the local authorities" ?
Or we could do an RS Campout!

As a man, he must stake it out while hiding inside and peeping out the windows. When they come for his car there is only ONE solution. |

IN addition to all the spy suggestions, perhaps approach the neighbor. Have your friend act like he needs help in finding the perp. Just inquire and say if they saw anything. Just keeping your enemies closer.
