Even the trash cans. Just…put the trash cans in actual view of the camera? How would you buy a camera just to watch your trash cans and then not actually watch the trash cans with it?
No, you’re overthinking it. Say the cans are on the opposite side of the house from where op is. If he crosses in view of the front door, he’ll (op) be spotted. So he goes through the backyard instead for access to the cans.
He’s (op neighbor) not buying a camera and pointing it straight at the cans from the property fence or something.
Easy solution, jam the wifi signal while moving the mat. Added benefit of making them more concerned that the house is haunted. If the houses are close enough (likely, hoa so suburbs) you could just hook it to a basic wall-wart timer that actives at 3 and deactives at 3:05, and have it + jammer plugged in at the closest outlet to neighbors front door. Ring doesn’t have a wired ethernet version to fix this vulnerability.
I have a Google doorbell and it’s night vision is terrible. I’ve taken the garbage to the curb during the winter when it’s the darkest and the doorbell didn’t register anything not the noise not the motion. Even knowing what I was looking for I barely show up in the video feed, it looks like a ghost.
I don’t believe it… Moving a welcome mat when the guy has a camera doorbell? C’mon…

Exactly, signal jam the cheap way. 👍 Most people don’t realize you can set this up in the breaker box lol. But I’m a stinker.
Doesn’t explain moving the welcome mat undetected though
Read my other comment :p

…why are you looking at me like that?
You don’t have to jam it. You can spam it with DEAUTHs from anything that will run aircrack.
I thought wpa3 made those attacks not possible?
Also jeez, that’s a program I haven’t thought of in 20 years. That and wireshark…
It can but usually isn’t configured to. WPA3 may have it’s own seprate DoS flaw that wasn’t fully patchable, can’t remember
Yeah, good idea. Commit a felony offense to cover the tracks of your late night trashcan shenanigan…
It’s only bad if you get caught

There are radio nerds out there who are extremely interested in RF noise and will absolutely triangulate and report a signal jammer.
Well now we have to move the trash cans of two houses I guess

Even better
Have you tried turning the porch light on?
This is easily accomplished with a fishing rod. I also don’t believe this, however.
You really think someone would do that, just go on the internet and tell lies?
You guys are no fun
Impossible!
Inconceivable!
You have no idea how many of those things are mounted such that you can walk up from the side unseen.

Found op. That’s some nice work you’re doing.
