I mean a sly ex-cop/PI is going to pose as a delivery guy and wake the kid up at 8AM after he feels safe and gets sloppy, and get him on camera agreeing that he doesn't really own the place.
Something like that is my guess. There are a million tricks that they will use, depending on how resourceful and stubborn they are.

From what I understand, what he's doing is not in question. Part of this law is that he has to openly state that he intends to squat and use this law to eventually take ownership. He's not denying that the property does not currently belong to him.

I'm talking about using social engineering techniques to get him to let his guard down and admit he's pulling something.
"Nice scam you got going here kid" "Thanks" He admitted it was a scam! Get him!
Just an example as to the kind of thing I would imagine private companies would do to get him out of there by technicality, against his own usage of a technicality law.

That wouldn't make a difference. What you're calling a scam, is actual law. He can do this. Part of being able to do this is admitting what you're doing. He has a sign on the front window explicitly stating what he's up to. Does not sound like there's anything to get him to admit.
