Hi guys,
We're still fairly new to Geocaching but have hidden a few of our own caches too.
A couple of weeks ago we hid a trail of 13 caches with a Halloween theme, including one with a doorbell - second hide feature.
I noticed on a couple of 'found' logs that came through, that there were kids at one of the hides who claimed to know what was going on when the Geocachers arrived at GZ.
Since then we've had logs that mention the logbooks have been defaced so we went out today to check. Sure enough they were defaced and the doorbell has been stolen so what was a very popular little hide is now gone. We collected our affected caches from the local area and archived them as its obvious that the perpetrators have signed up to Geocaching.com to get the coordinates of the cache hides - they've even signed the log books (along with their 'rude' drawings and badly spelt expletives)

Is it worth reporting them to Groundspeak?
Thanks,
