Police 'will crack down on illegal Premier League streams and modified fire sticks' with authorities 'set to visit 1,000 homes and warn fans of prosecution' if they continue watching

Police are reportedly set to visit 1,000 homes in the coming week to warn fans that they could face prosecution if they continue to watch Premier League matches on illegal streams.

The authorities are working with anti-piracy investigators from FACT in 'Operation Raider' to track individuals who have been watching games in England and across Europe illegally via modified boxes or fire sticks, as reported by The Mirror.

They are now taking matters into their own hands and will go and knock on people's doors to warn them about the potential consequences of their actions.
