I think he is referring to "Picture Poachers", who grab pictures and create fake ads around them. I have had it done to me before, not a big deal because when it comes right down to it, pictures sell, and IMHO, having a picture connected to you makes it easier for others to spot the scams, we have seen it on this site, I have seen it on the BMX forums, Facebook, ect. I have had people PM me and tell me that something, they know that I would never part with is listed XYZ for sale. Yes, scammers are a huge problem, a lot of people water mark their pictures. But, when it comes down to selling, making it easier on possible buys, I. E., keep it simple, post pictures of what you want to sell, instead of making a potential buyer jump through hoops. Kinda like the people who cut & paste a link to another forum or page, if they can C&P the link, why not do the entire ad.
I too would like to see what the seller is offering,
Sorry for the rant, consider it a bump.
