This morning my perimeter security alarms were tripped by two men who made entry to my property on electric scooters. They were observed talking high-resolution photos of my property, and tampering with my electrical service pole.

When confronted, the men refused to identify themselves, and stated that they didn’t even carry their wallets with them. They had ZERO identification papers that they would provide to me. They claimed to work for @gobrightspeed, however when questioned they provided ZERO documentation that they actually worked for that company. They claimed to be a subcontractor for the local power company…but got really shifty and immediately fled when I questioned this and asked for proof that they did work for the power company. They had ZERO identifying uniforms either.

Hmm, wherever have I heard of non-uniformed, alleged “subcontractors” for power companies using that fake-claim to gain access to property in North Carolina? Perhaps the Chechen “subcontractor” scandal from last year down in Moore County might ring a bell?

They might have "fled" because they were worried for their safety. The OP sounds legitimately unhinged.

OP (on X) sounds like a real Sovereign Citizen type. It's a wild read, but you won't find out more about þe "Chechan scandal" from þe post.
