Out-of-control eshays have taken to social media to boast about the crimes they have committed with their mates.
Disturbing photos and videos have captured young people taking part in a range of acts including brawls, car thefts and anti-social behaviour.
Fed-up locals have started a Facebook page outing the delinquents with more than 50 uncensored videos being shared since the inception of the page in March 2023.
Stealing from stores, fleeing from police and smoking methamphetamine from glass pipes are also among the despicable acts teenagers are bragging about online.
While the account has gathered over 13,000 followers in under a year, the owner has come under fire from those featured in its posts.
One warned someone will ‘be comin for ya (sic) next’.

Other perpetrators came forward to comment on posts identifying them to use their new-found infamy to happily claim and boast about the crimes.
A large portion of the posts to the page are groups of eshays, that the page ousts as being part of certain ‘gangs’, posing for photos together in designer clothes.
Some of the images show children no older than 13 posing for the images.
In one post, they brag about luring an 11-year-old into public toilets to rob him of his clothes to sell online for ‘buds (marijuana) or drinks’.
Two videos on the page show a teenage girl and boy separately smoking methamphetamine with a glass pipe.
Both videos garnered comments from worried social media users who were saddened by children smoking hard drugs.
One video showed a group of teenagers running from officers after the car they had allegedly stolen was brought to a stop by police spikes.
The vehicle was brought to such as aggressive stop that the airbags were deployed before one of the teens can be heard saying ‘love you bro’ and fleeing.
The video’s caption said the ‘boys send they love they be home later we made bail (sic)’, with many users taking aim at one who claimed to be part of those involved.
‘They tried to spike us mate, got chased all the way from (Deception Bay) to Gympie,’ the teen wrote.
‘Is this meant to be like cool or something?’ one user responded.
‘Oh to be as cool as them,’ a second wrote.

Social media users praised the fed-up locals for outing the teenagers on the Facebook page.
‘I followed your account just to see people doing dumb s**t. but after following your account for a while you’re doing gods work,’ the message read.
‘The amount of s**t you solved for victims of the bulls**t some c***s put people through is amazing.’
Queensland Police confirmed to Daily Mail they are aware of the account.
The videos have highlighted an epidemic of youth crime in Queensland leading to police vowing to ‘break the cycle’ of juvenile offending.
Queensland Premier Steven Miles committed to tackling the issue of youth crime in his first speech after taking over from Annastacia Palaszczuk in December.
Mr Miles noted that the problem was ‘complex’ but planned to give ‘young people the very best chance… (and) the right support early in life’.
‘I can’t fix the youth crime problem on my own, we need everyone to step up and we need to work together,’ Mr Miles said.
