Theft of photos from TBN

[KennyG]

A few years ago I had a website that contained a lot of my photographs. I found some odd traffic to the website and found that an Islamic religious site had hot linked to some of my photos like sunrises. I just renamed the files so they would get an error message, but I was tempted to replace the files with nudes. However, I managed to restrain myself.

$4000? Good price. I will send you a check for $10,000 because my bank only allows me to write checks in multiples of $10,000, so if you could deposit this and then send me the extra balance of $6000 and I will arrange to have my mover pick the tractor up Monday. In fact, for this help, only return $5000 because this is such a good deal.
I’d pick it up myself, but I’m a Prince in Nigeria and have to attend some royal functions tomorrow.

Hilarious. I just flagged a post with that very picture on Craig's List for my area. I've been flagging them for so long, it's very easy to pick them out. Not that it's all that complicated.

The funny thing about the linked site is that it looks legitimate, making me wonder if parts of that also have been hacked with the contact info changed.

I flag everyone of these posts on CL that I see. It's become kind of a game.

The Craigslist scam one does not shock me, but the overseas site did look legitimate. Thinking I need to send them a bill for the photo. LOL

Instead of nudes the classic replacement image is goatse (the original lemon party). Google it if you dare. Just remember there are images you just can't unsee.

Just reading the descriptive text in the search result page was enough for me. Thankfully, did not have to see the pic in the search result.

:yuck:

I did the same. He may be a famous artist, but that doesn't mean that it's art. Then again, it could be that I just have no taste.

Most likely it's both.
