A few days ago, the Linhe District Public Security Bureau received a report from the Bayannaoer Branch of China Mobile that an abnormal signal was found near the No. 1 group of Yuejin Village, Shuanghe Town, which affected the normal use of the network by surrounding residents.
After receiving the police, the police from the Network Security Brigade of the Public Security Bureau of Linhe District, the Science and Technology Information and Communication Section, and the Shuanghe Town Police Station rushed to the scene. After positioning with wireless detection equipment, the interference signal was the strongest at a warehouse in Yuejin Village. The police immediately contacted Wang San (a pseudonym), the renter of the warehouse.
After Wang San opened the warehouse door, the police seized 3 wifi jammer, 2 of which were working. The police summoned Wang San to the investigation center of the Linhe District Public Security Bureau according to law.
After investigation, Wang San was in the business of buying and selling second-hand vehicles and mortgages. Because some car owners have installed GPS locators in the mortgaged vehicles, in order to shield the GPS signals of the mortgaged vehicles, Wangsan.com purchased the WiFi jammer and installed it in the warehouse. Afterwards, the police visited the surrounding residents, and everyone unanimously reported that the wireless signal was poor recently and the network could not be accessed normally.
