Hmmm. Well, I’ve been an attorney a long time and no lease and not paying is practically the very definition of squatter. And, I evict squatters for banks as part of the work I do, every day
In NY your plan would likely result in the squatters calling the utility companies. The utilities would be turned on and the financial charges for same would just accrue and eventually if unpaid, become a lien on the property. Not a huge deal but defeats your plan. Cali is probably just as squatter friendly as NY
I’m not against trying your plan though. I’m more of a do as I say not as I do sorta guy if you know what I mean

One option is I can shut off the electricity and natural gas.
