Ring users in my neighborhood are using Ring Neighborhood to commit crimes

There is a group of teens in my neighborhood who repeatedly trespass, break and enter, steal, and harass. They have also been spying on my 8yo daughter changing and bathing. It is currently 1AM and was watching them on one of my cameras, so I decided to make a post in the Neighbors section to raise awareness and hopefully get their parents involved in their delinquent minors. As soon as I hit submit on the post, I hear a cell phone ding outside my window. A few seconds later my post is denied by a community moderator. Sus. I submit a second post totally unrelated to the first, hit submit, and hear the same phone ding outside my window, followed by that post being blocked as well and a couple of snickers. So clever.

    Hi @user_3d7097. While the Neighbors app is a great place to keep your community updated on safety concerns, we always recommend contacting your local law enforcement about any criminal activity. Posts made to the Neighbors app must meet the community guidelines, or they may be denied or removed. If your post is denied or removed, you will receive an automatic email that you can reply to in order to ask for further details. The Neighbors app is not moderated by other users, it is moderated by an official Ring team.

      They are also either jamming wifi or de-auth attacking my camera, both of which are federally illegal with the FCC. Does Ring have any rules regarding underage minors being community moderators? I'd like to see Ring audit the account of whoever denied my posts.
