No... its only if they are piggy-backing off your internet. Their computer will send a MAC address to your ISP, and your ISP can take that address and block a computers ability to use the internet using your IP (thus they can't use the internet using your wireless internet).

You won't physicly be told their MAC address, but the ISP has it and can use that information to stop a person(s) from using your internet (granted they have already). If your neighbour hasn't piggy backed off your internet before, then your ISP won't have their MAC address.
Explain to me how the ISP gets their MAC address when you're using NAT.
