the problem lies in the fact that they probably don't live where you live, and it might not be illegal there. and even if it is, you would still need to contact the local police in their jurisdiction, because anything federal is unlikely to spend any time on something like this.

for that matter, even getting local police to do something will be an uphill battle. cops don't enjoy actually doing their jobs.
