Just had a crazy thought..I wonder if there are any people posting pics of Zoos,Aquariums,Websites or Fish store fish they claim to be there own..I know quite a few people on her that are legit,but i was thinking some pics look Fishy :confused:...Pun intended , lmao
 
I am sure there are some fakers out there. Solomon has caught people posting pictures of gars that he has in his archives.
 
Hello!

I think for the most part, everyone here and all their photos are legit. There have been a couple of hijacked photos posted in the past. But, the members of MFK are so hardcore that they know of most every large tank set up and of Googled, unique photos available. They get called out if posting stolen images.

You'd have to be really, really good to sneak anything by this intense group lol!
 
Yeah, I've seen a few times people get caught claiming/posting pics of stuff that isn't theirs. Funny part is that usually it's from someone on MFK. With so many members, it's not really a surprise that the good stuff is already here. :D
 
Its happened to me many times, usually a photo an adult flower ray that I used to have, people (losers) use that photo to set up selling scams, often on aquabid etc but as the others said, scammers get busted quickly. I also recall some guy trying to say that a display at the Shedd aq was in his home.
So...if you see this photo somewhere let us know
:)

Im sure it happens all the time, its unfortunate for someone to take credit for someone elses hard work and dedication.
 
yeah why not~ probably some kids out there with a bowl showing pics of some one else's stuff but I'd say most are legit,at least I would think and hope so.

It's happened before, I'm sure it's happening right now, and it'll happen in the future.
