Using strong passwords (not my pets name or my wife's birthday), not doing anything stupid and 27 years and counting of banking experience helps too. You'd cringe at the stupid things I've seen people do online. It's an everyday thing in my workplace. No wonder our Information Security Officer is constantly bombarding us with reminders and new procedures.

Ron:
Look.......... I'm sorry I brought this up............
You seem focused on the idea that somehow these scammers using someone elses photos are a reflection on them or you.............. it is not.
The scammer will use any photos they feel might work, they don't care where they come from.
And even if they "use YOUR photos," that isn't a reflection on you.
Nor will you be held responsible for their actions.

I don't care what you do with your posts or WTS/WTB posts here and neither does the CMP.
Nor do the scammers, you won't hurt or stop them.

Buyers vigilance, calling these people out and the CMP banning them will.

Shomway.................... thanks for spotting and "marking" the posts!

I'm surprised that new moderators are not recruited from this community. Some people (myself included) spend a lot of time reading this site.

I have volunteered; no idea why I haven’t heard back 🤔

Because you talk too much. Members don't need a lengthy "Winds of War" treatise for every issue.

Who knew?

FYI rolling thunder, I am pretty sure everyone, including me knows I won't be CMPs 1st (or 37,421st) choice for a moderator.
