Does The FBI Really Use Surveillance Vans With WiFi SSIDs Saying 'FBI_SURVEILLANCE_VAN'?

from the not-sure-i-believe-it... dept

Danny was the first of a few of you to send in variations on the story of Tampa police arresting a teenager, Jared Cano, for allegedly plotting to blow up a local high school. The police were apparently tipped off by someone. However, what resulted in the submission is the note in the article about a posting on Cano's Facebook page from a few days ago, in which he claims that he saw an SSID for "FBI_SURVEILLANCE VAN":
This is leading lots of people to ask just how stupid the FBI is for having such an SSID. The thing is... I doubt this is really true. There's no confirmation of it other than this kid saying it, and it doesn't sound like it was the FBI who investigated and arrested him in the first place. And while we've certainly seen the FBI do some crazy and clueless things at times over the years, I have a hard time believing that anyone there would ever be so clueless as to set up an open WiFi with that SSID.

        Re: Re:

        Sir I like your comment about knowing if you're being followed or not by the NSA. My experience is this you can't help to notice the tenant out windows the people with their hands to their face talking back and forth and the extra police force driving by your house. If you want to know if you're being followed or not take this advice take a 30-minute tour don't call anyone just hop in your car and drive fast real quick and then slow down stop at a gas station for 20 minutes move to the next gas station for another 10 and what's the activity around you you'll know if you're being followed or not this comment sir made me laugh cuz you'll know if you're being followed by the NSA or the FBI. you can't help not to notice. As we speak I have a tale of about 40 cars. Have a nice day but my advice is this if you do get followed try to keep your life right and do the right next thing.

    It was actually a TSA access point, cleverly named FBI_SURVEILLANCE_VAN in order to catch terrorists. And then revoke their drivers' licenses.


    Only a terrorist would question why that wireless access point was there.

      Actually, in my neighborhood for awhile, 6 days a week, I had something pop up on my iPhone's wifi that said EXACT SAME THING: FBI Surveillance Van. That was a couple months ago. Just the other day, driving down a main road there popped up a wifi SSID that said FBI Surveillance Van 4. All I know is they are LOCKED, and creeping the FUCK out of me, which is why I googled it & found this. It'd appear YES.....the FBI is THAT STUPID! I just want to know wth is going on!!!

    Seen this repeatedly...

    I've seen a number of "FBI (whatever)" SSIDs.

    I'm in Canada. The FBI has neither jurisdiction nor presence here.

    It's just people name their access points random things. When I lived in an apartment the crack dealer on the second floor (I think, anyway--the SSID went away when he moved) had his named "Secret Service", and another person had one named "Playboy Mansion". I'm also pretty sure that there was no Playboy Mansion in that neighbourhood.

      To be honest both instances have a good likely hood of being true. As it is even with the government to record video of anyone who does not Know that you are recording them. So for a quick booyah and a few laughs at our expense the FBI might be legally informing people they are under surveillance by using the SSID FBISERV if you see it alot and someone you Kno in your neighborhood grows more pot than is allowed per card legally then don't get caught at their house

    I have long used law enforcement sounding names when setting up routers and access points. For the most part I find that it tends to deter people from trying to hack their way in.

    Jks!

    "FBI Surveillance Van", and other similar variations are common joke wifi names.

    I live in Australia, and I have a few around me called "AFP Surveillance Van" and "Virus Downloading" etc etc

    "..Surveillance Vans With WiFi SSIDs Saying 'FBI_SURVEILLANCE_VAN.."

    I'm tempted to set up a wireless OpenSource honeypot server with that SSID just for fun. Fake the OS fingerprint. Spoof the IP and MAC. The data collected over a 6 month period would be interesting to say the least. And the answer to the next question is NO. I refuse to share the data with law enforcement. It will be for my own amusement. And only then, I will share the details exclusively with open-source and bit-torrent communities for security research. Screw DHS! God-Damn secret police bastards. I hate those over-funded bungholes! Only thing they're missing are the StormTrooper Nazi Helmets. ;P

      There's our problem ... the Constitution set up a Republic (Thus, Ben Franklin's famous quote, A Republic, if you can keep it. and the pledge of allegiance ..."to the Republic for which it stands")... but the corrupt power-mongers have dummied us down to believe that we are supposed to be a Democracy. Rome fell when it evolved from a Republic to a Democracy!

    Surveillance van

    I remember one night several weeks ago I was attempting to set up a wi-fi connection to a computer in the far end of the house from where the router is, and as I was trying to connect with the router I noticed several names, including the one for our router, and among them was one for "wi-fi surveillance van." I checked a few minutes later and the surveillance van was gone.

    Incidentally, I never did get the connection to work properly, apparently I was out of range of the router. I ended up going back to Ethernet.

        Re: Re: FBI survelliance w/ WIFI

        I was in a CVS pharmacy parking lot yesterday and happen to touch the WiFi network setting,it showed a list of nearby networks and I suddenly happen to notice FBI surveillance van,but it instantly disappeared.I backed out of WiFi networks screen,then went back in...nothing.Waited about one full minute it was back again.took screenshot. Didn't check again when I got home because I live in the boons and didn't want to spook myself.
        BUT,i want to mention that-in April 2017,I was returning home from the store after dark.I live next to a field so as I was driving up the street ,I was approx300 feet away from my house(as I'm coming up the street toward my house,I have a view of my backyard,front yard,and right side,of my house...house is on the left side of the winding street),I could see some kind of lighted small aircraft,that appeared as if it were just levitating directly above my backyard but high up.I have no neighbors.When I got home everything pitch black and also I looked up and sky was dark...no longer saw the lights from an aircraft which had appeared to be hovering in the sky above my backyard a few moments earlier.

        I went inside and my phone didn't automatically connect to my home WiFi netwotk as it usually does,so,I went into the available networks screen in order to connect to my WiFi.
        Not only was there my network,but there was an additional network;an AT&T network.
        I live in boonies and there had only ever been only my network,showing in the WiFi networks in range screen.so I was I'mmediately concerned,but I didn't know exactly why.just knew that it was bizarre. I don't know much (basically next to nothing)about tech issues,but somehow did some googling about what had just occurred,and was led to find an app in playstore called analyzer.maybe signal analyzer.I I stalled it,and it showed the other network signal strength was equal to my own network signal.
        If I knew anything about tech,I'm sure the analyzer had some other useful information,such as whether the network was in current use,etc.
        Anyway suddenly I was alarmed BC I remembered the thing I saw ,the lights on what seemed like a small aircraft,hovering above my backyard. .which seemed to disappear when I reached home....or had just shut its lights off!
        I was frightened.Now I wonder...it may have been a drone?maybe there is a wide spread use of hundreds of thousands of surveillance drones? I also believe the person who talked about t.I.,gang stalking
        I hope its not true because that's exactly how I felt,and so many bizarre things had occurred during a few weeks long period prior to that.
        Also very bizarre things afterwards.
        It makes me very sad to believe that for whatever purposes,any human would inflict emotional distress on someone who lives alone or is unprotected.but,humans have exploited and continue to exploit millions of animals every day,in every exploitative way imaginable;so we shouldn't be surprised if there are people who are OK with inflicting psychological and physical harm to people also.
        And I agree w the person who wrote a comment here,where he almost"wished" the strange things occuring could be attributed to a mental problem....because it would have been less emotionally painful.
        Whatever the case may be...whether the network name is a joke or not,doesn't really matter.
        There is nothing that can be done about it
        and there is no benefit from worrying about it.
        Just live your life and make the most of everyday.be kind to every living thing.help people and animals.I have a house full of rescued dogs and cats and I'm busy taking care of them,around the clock so I don't make time to worry about politics, gossip,etc.

      Actually they do use public access ports but have a VPN. They are that stupid because they are complacent nut jobs like us (talking about the employees not the agency). I have a hard time believing you get a lot of surveillance done with everyone in the neighborhood looking for your van. Plus the "intelligence" agencies don't subscribe to the hide in plain sight mentality. It is probably some dumb kid trying to isolate his gaming or file sharing router. The FBI does not need a WiFi connected van as they have access to Direct satellite communications. They also don't need to drive neighborhood to neighborhood. They have backdoor access digitally and don't have to leave their desks to get your digital footprint.

    FBI SURVEILLANCE VAN SSID

    It's real. I first noticed this phenomenon when I moved to Los Angeles about a year and a half ago... I war trying to jump online to check email at a friends house and saw it listed as an access point and thought it was hilarious. a few weeks later in a completely different part of town I saw another and thought it was a funny coincidence. After that I started noticing that no matter where I went in Los Angeles County or Orange County there was an FBI SV access point. my day job is internet security so I looked into it, made a few calls and found out that it is real and the only reason they use such an obvious name is for legal purposes so as to claim that their acknowledgement/advertisement of their presence constitutes one part of their legal argument for their right to sniff traffic, since anyone who tries to connect to the and sees this ssid should no longer have any "expectation of privacy"... Or some such nightmarish Orwellian double-speak authoritarian bullshit. Go to my website people. use encryption. good encryption. use proxy servers. use Tor. use Blackhat Linux. learn some shit. and, above all... JUST ASSUME THEY ARE ATTEMPTING (probably successfully) TO WATCH EVERYTHING.

      I'm going to be keeping an eye out for this SSID, and if I see it again, it'll be time to sniff them out, or maybe call in a different team of feds, saying "there are these middle eastern guys hanging out in a van across from my building... I think I heard them say something about an explosion!". It'll be 2 minutes before the area is crawling with LEAs.

    Stupid Junkie, 23 Mar 2013 @ 2:54pm

    It's not what you think

    I'll be brief because the fact is its quicker. This isn't - as in Is NOT - the FBI or other law enforcement, or any government body or similar. But you should Worry a great deal if these Pop up on your wifi. You really should.
    Maybe a few people name their wifi to try scare people or for a laugh.
    But let me ask you does it appear and diss appear periodically, are there other "funny" or "strange" wifi names around? Do they do the same? Like maybe if you analyzed it, and looked at the graph they go from 0 to peak very briefly and then back down to 0 again, periodically? And always weak, no matter how much you move or try locate them?
    Almost like its just one signal cycling throug fake macs and fake names. Like when one drops to 0 another suddenly peaks. Or maybe like none of it exists external to your device at all. Like maybe there's some other network activity or "APs" that is far more something you should be wary of - because you are already under total scrutiny, have not had any privacy for some time, are being monitored and having your online prescence manipulated by someone else. And worse. Maybe it's just for their own entertainment, maybe they don't like you, maybe there's a goal it doesn't matter. But - there is one person or a number of persons living close by who are involved, and you can remove the power they have in every tech aspect that way. Even a team of security or penetration experts is not expert at everything. And a godlike tech master generally is less good at being physically manipulated, if you have to. And extremely vulnerable to analog or mechanical forms of surveillance. But you must play well or you won't get to do any of that. Feed them, but don't underestimate them ever - you need to be convincing to yourself. So act like you are onto something, and then make like you are just confusing the actual things with other things. Act like you know now its the cops. Act like you are going to get secure and fix your security on everything, which will not make any difference FYI, but you don't understand that. Google heaps of stuff that is related, and make out like you think that's what's happening. Act like you don't know that anything at all you do on your mobile/PC/console/tablet/router etc is going to somewhere else first and that's where you are getting your results and "Internet" from. Use analog surveillance on them. Non digital cams and audio. And go find out what government agency exists that might want to monitor entities like this. They might jump at the chance to actually build a case over months of it being done to you, if you can handle it. And you will get a good result as it'll be too late by the time they are aware to keep their jobs, or avoid conviction. Failing involving government, just corner one somewhere people don't get any mobile reception, and have a chat.
    Whatever you do, just be aware of the fact often the best way to see your paranoia is justified is to do experiments that don't care if you are paranoid or not, scientific method brought a subjective animal into the age of reason. Use it always. And this post will be crazed paranoia to 99.99999% of people reading, of course it should really. But if even one person gets something else out of it then its done some good. Hello friend, you are like me. Well met.

    Weird Plates and Surveillance

    I've jotted down and posted on blogs and such various license plates of vans (like the white pedo file fbi surveillance vans) and other vehicles. Strangely afterwards all the cars "following" me have NEWLY registered temp plates or customized plates "2CUTE4U" and shit following me around.

    I just want them off my ass. They know exactly what i do and how the fuck i do it.

    The vans exist, just jot down and post on a social networking site all the plates you suspect and see how everything changes.

    FBI_SURVEILLANCE_VAN

    Why would the FBI transmit a signal at all from a "van" - Seems unbelievably costly to go after a petifile with that much effort. We are talking some top-notch mother fuckers here people. They don't have to lift their fat asses off their 5k dollar office chairs to see what your doing... Lastly, with the CryfI naming - always thought it was a good idea to fudge with the neighbors a bit... "I_See_You_Through_Your_Blinds" or "DONT_TURN_AROUND"

    There are hundreds of people setting up that faked name "FBI surveillance Van" It is very popular around major truck stops.
    Truck drivers do it for fun too.

    Thank about it...do you REALLY think that the FBI is stupid enough to make it publicly known and list that where anyone can see it? It would be like; THIS IS THE FBI, WE ARE OUTSIDE IN THIS BLACK VAN ACROSS THE STREET AND WE ARE GOING TO RAID YOUR HOUSE AT 5PM SO HIDE YOUR STASH AND RUN SO THAT WE WILL NOT CATCH YOU BEFORE WE RAID YOU!"

So when we see this it is a real threat. If anyone is having the same issue. Ask yourself, what things are you looking up on the net, conspiracy? What are you discussing etc. The real danger of the new world, globalisation,and the new technologies they are using. They can listen in to your general conversations. I dont think its a coincidence this fbi surveillance van is popping up around the world.

    I've recently seen this wi-fi connection pop-up in my neighborhood and have been tempted to report them to the local authorities, "FBI Surveillance Van 2". If their running an investigate I really don't want to interfere or cause them problems either. They could be looking missing children, law breakers of all sorts and I just want to stay out of their way.

    It's true…I've been logging on lately and seeing it. I took a screen shot but I don't know how to upload it here. But it's true. The custodian found some binders in the garbage showing how to make a bomb and they called the police. They then called Homeland security, I believe. Ever since then (a few weeks ago) I've been seeing the FBI Surveillance Van whenever I go to connect.

    The What If's and Murphy Plus Plain absent Sightedness :)

    so im sitting here and was hoping to find this amusing so I will make it at least somewhat amusing while Concievable and take some of your short time on earth away pondering such conundrums :)

    if the best place to hide some thing is in plain sight - using an obvious SSID will be regarded as a hoax scame or someone being silly therefore disregarded.. and able to operate freely

    2. I actually do have a buddy he named his SSID if not the same pretty close and thought it was funny to try and see how the block reacted.

    3. It is not unheard of + i know of a apartment location that installed night vision camera on their entry ways. The apartment accepts section 8 or in iowa rent help for low income or Disability ( SSI ) program and publically notices they do cooperatie with drug enforcement and the police. the camera's SSID are named still to this day - DEA - Drug Enforcement.

    In point why not use skeptiscism to hide your intent, of course it's probably just someone playing around P:) ,, And isn't a PROPER Warning label the first step for detourance of behavior ..


    just saying some times the simplist answer/s are the right answers cus in all cases one must remain Observantly Prepared to Act without succumbing to rash Judgments and reacting to emotion instead of PurPose.

    Targeted Individuals of Gang Stalking and Electronic Harassment

    I believe some people use FBIVAN6 as a joke and I believe the FBI is also present although not physically. I admit that I'm not very familiar with how all this technology works but I'm certain of this: when walking around outside my home the signal never goes past 1st bar over the dot (fair) and drops to no bar, only the dot (poor). It's the same inside the house continuously going from fair to poor. I am also aware that my phone has been high packed due to all the strange things its been doing for 6 months or more. It's not an open signal. I believe that somehow the signal FBIVAN6 is able to view and copy any and everything I'm doing on my phone. There are several other SSID's that seem to appear or disappear on a set schedule. There is a fucked up covert "Program" that is targeting people around the globe. If certain things weren't happening to me I would think the exact same thing I know most people reading this right now would think. "That's a bunch of crazy ass bullshit!" "This guy is mentally fucked and belongs in the nut house!" "Dude, you're not that important!" etc... etc.. I'll say this: I wish it were a psychiatric illness instead of what I'm dealing with. At least then I'd have some hope of becoming mentally stable with meds and counseling. Instead, I'm completely powerless with no say in the matter. There's not a man on earth that can stand against electromagnetic weapons and that's just one type. Google "active denial system", "medusa", "V2K microwave hearing device or voice of God) or DIY homemade microwave gun that any teen can make with a magnetron from an old microwave. Myron May and Aaron Alexis (navy yard shooter) were both victims of this technology before they chose their victims. They were just 2 people of many that were deliberately pushed into a corner before they reacted with violence. Thank God I'm aware of what's happening as opposed to thinking I'm losing my mind or that God or the devil is communicating with me. Don't trust the media for the truth. It's up to you to seek the truth from other sources. FBIVAN6 or whatever else is used could be exactly what you see on the screen. The FBI choosing you for targeting. I don't wish this on anyone with a soul...

    I have screen shots of the FBI surveillance on my phone. I can't figure out why they are following me. I have been honest with my local police department about my life. However I'm still seeing it. They even have like FBI survelliance van 8 or another #. What can I do to make them stop following me. My life has become public knowledge and I don't think that is okay in the US without my permission.

      Re: FBI tracking

      You have screenshots of FBI surveillance as in you have screenshots showing for example:FBIVAN6 as an said for available networks? The way I look at it its 50/50. It's the FBI or its someone's idea of a joke. Either way there's nothing I can do to change it. How about that fuckin' Patriot Act though, right? Bush Sr. found a way to really stick it to the American people if they're not 100% on board with A New World Order and his squirrely rat bastard 9/11 conspirator son can kiss my, oh never mind cause I'm losing focus here. Do you know anything about Mormons? I know they originate in Utah, ride bicycles & wear identical clothing when they knock on your door while you're eating the type of cereal that tastes like shit when it gets soggy and they start telling you about golden tablets and an angel that kept visiting John Smith or was it Joe? Hell, it don't matter cause either one is as plain boring as the other. Anyways, I'm told most of them FBI people are in fact Mormons and wouldn't you know, that ol Comey fella that gave Hillary a pass, and I'm talking a Big Pass, well he's a Mormon too! You think me or you would get a pass from the FBI? Highly doubtful unless our last name was Clinton, related to "The Clintons", living in Utah and were verified card carrying Mormons! Perhaps a sizable donation to his wife in an offshore account such as the Cayman Island's would be to our benefit so do you see where all this leads to? It leads to a corrupt system that those in the right places aren't held accountable for their Goddamn crimes! As a matter of fact, just like the squirrely rat bastard Bush Jr., the FBI can Kiss My Ass Too! I am disgusted so I think I'll have me a beer now.

    I live in a gay wiccan community where the evil is so thick they actually call the sons of silence , the government... They use apps swapping of phones and your Wi-Fi to take over your phone so you can't alert the proper authorities...the sting.Ray and public sector phones are old news for them... They ppl sell dope put extras in your food will drug u and harm anyone they can ... They call themselves the American cartel.... Sad thing is my dad actively sought this community out to be gay and sinister..

      Re: WiFi and FBI vans

      I live in Ontario,Canada and my WiFi search keeps picking up FBI van. I know they will say people just like to name their WiFi that? Bullshit. One of the WiFi search was in a huge cemetery with NO wifi! Also they appear at crucial junctions in our city,London,Ontario. I mean I have never,ever heard the name FBI van, and nobody else has either! This is true the FBI vans are REAL. But wow the information you provide is incredible,and I believe that I can tell you are not lying. Anyways I just thought your story is astonishing and needed to hear that these things are real and not hearsay. Thank you. Darren.

    This is true, I just found this site by I just tried to get on my WiFi in London KY and FBI surveillance was on my WiFi list. It didn't say van just FYI surveillance. This is the second time I've seen this on there so I wanted to see if anyone else has seen this. I just hope it's not me they're after.

    the ultimate

    I'm tempted to set up a wireless OpenSource honeypot server with that SSID just for fun. Fake the OS fingerprint. Spoof the IP and MAC. The data collected over a 6 month period would be interesting to say the least. And the answer to the next question is NO. I refuse to share the data with law enforcement. It will be for my own amusement.

    FBI surveillance Van

    I live in North Central Idaho and I also encountered the notification FBI Surveillance Van when I got onto my telephone's connections today. It was on for about two seconds and then disappeared and I couldn't find it again. No weed in my house, and I have no criminal record what so ever. I really don't believe that the FBI, if guilty, wouldn't have ironed that "wrinkle immediately, but I am now more curious than ever as to what it is. Sounds like the statement is popping up all over the country.
