Fox News
A Mexican cartel is accused of setting up illegal Wi-Fi networks with stolen equipment and threatening to kill civilians who refuse to pay their exorbitant monthly fees.
The group charged approximately 5,000 people elevated prices between 400 and 500 pesos ($25 to $30) a month, the Michoacán state prosecutor's office told The Associated Press. That meant the group could rake in around $150,000 a month.
