Even with dynamically-allocated IP addresses the ISP can identify which customer has an address -IPv4 and IPv6-given the address and the timestamp. IP addresses are specifically mentioned in article 30. I would notify local law enforcement who will pass it up the chain to the appropriate level. Article 19 excludes criminal activity from being protected under the GDPR.
