Have any of your come across this before?

My wife signed on to her Galaxy Tablet today and one of the wireless sites that popped up was a "FBI Surveillance Van", it would disappear and come back which made us think it was driving around in the area.   We live in Owasso. 

Wondering if anyone else has seen this?

Just some people in the neighborhood playing a prank likely...FBI wouldn't broadcast their wireless SSID if they were roaming about.  Some people in my neighborhood tried that also.

Some slimeballs trying to get people to logon and spread some worms.

I've known people who do that to keep you from using their wifi.  I've seen "CIA_Stakeout" etc.   The best one I ever saw was "notyourwifi".

I've had mine as Surveillance Van #42.  It later just got shortened to 42, but I found it humorous.  Then there is the "This one, mom"

Hillarious.  Mine was 'TPDwebSurveillance'.  I thought I was being clever, I guess I'm not alone.
