I have wondered if when people post "Show me photos of your _______" if it was a way to harvest images for nefarious uses.

Years ago a knife dealer on Ebay was linking to pics of knives from other legit dealers websites. One dealer who saw his pic being used changed the linked to picture in the background of his site to one of graphic gay porn.
Of course it got reported and Ebay took it down, but not until many shoppers saw it. LOL.

Wouldn't surprise me if photos are being hijacked by certain Gunbroker (GB) dealers and used to market their own POS junkers. Happend to me with a shuckster in Georgia and GB (who happens to also be in Georgia, hum) didn't do a thing to enforce their own posted protection policies.
If not for the valuable assistance of my go-to ffl / gunsmith (well known NWFA member) I wouldn't have recovered even a partial partial refund.
NEVER do business on GB without a Visa / Mastercard and real buyer protection.

A trusted member and buyer/seller on the Colt forum has an inside contsct at GunBroker. He spoke with them and learned that they, despite evidence to the contrary, are "beside themselves" over the level of scamming and are seeking tech countermeasures to limit it as much as possible.

To be fair, they are not a tech company. They do need to hire one though, and probably spend a lot of money. Find someone who wants to turn their solution into a marketable service.
