Just giving everyone a heads up! Someone used an older collection pic of mine to win some type of contest on Wrestling Daze. A great boar die here alerted me to it, and I since contacted the guy running the site. I guess there's not much we can do , but just wanted to alert you guys and gals. I have to assume it was a member here, since this was the only place I post my wrestling figures. If the admins want to know who it is, pm me and I'll give you his name.

Lmao I can't stand dishonest people. Speaking of weirdos from this site, does anyone remember that degenerate "Black Widow" who acted like a maniac and stalked out multiple users off of the site while pretending to be a "single" Asian chick? That guy was a lunatic and actually had the nerve to send me death threats over ebay one time lmao. I ended up getting all of his info as well and he shut up quickly after that. It's surprising what kind of crazy things you can run into even on normal sites like this. π

I found it funny they used an older pic, too, from around 2013 or so I'm guessing. I see green Funkadactyls in the pic. If you're going to steal someone's pics, and use them to "win" something, you'd think they'd use the pics with more figures and such.

Shoot me a PM if you happen to know lol.

That's some shady business right there.
Is Wrestling Daze a member here? I just started watching his videos and he seems like a cool guy.

That sucks. Back in the Jakks days or first year or two of Mattel a board member here informed me that someone was using my pics in their listings on eBay.

Do people not have anything better to do? I barely have time to even check the boards on a daily basis. Lol

They may have came across them using google images.

They may have came across them using google images. That's possible. To SteveHulk, apparently just bragging rights it turns out. Seems they do this every Sunday, have people post collection pics,and choose who has the best. Initially, I thought maybe a prize was involved, and was like "Hey!"

google does pop up images from the forums, regardless that is a cheap thing to do. 1 reason why I don't bother to post pictures of my collection. I would suggest water marking photos for those who post a lot.

He tried to hug with me, and after I flat out ignored his attempts and blocked him he went away in no time. Don't feed the virus.

in late 2010 someone listed a MIB Elite Jeff Hardy on ebay and used the pic of my signed hardy elite. I contacted Ebay and told them what was going on and sent a pic of the Elite with the word **** showing and within 15 minutes the auction was deleted. I sent the seller a nice message but he never responded

People who change the figures on the boxes and now this, what a world full of idiots.

I see some weird requests on the pic request page that make me wonder what they would use such pics for. Shady people.
Most people ask for height references or skin tone comparisons there but others ask for odd things like "can you do a really good picture of Ambrose leaping off a cage onto Reigns laying on a table with Michael Cole and Jim Ross on commentary"
Just makes me wonder why sometimes. I see people steal others photos on IG too.

I never had any interaction with him besides him liking my posts in the Fix Up Thread. Then out of nowhere I started getting these harassing messages on eBay from someone with pictures of anime characters (which seemed to match his WF avatar) and was able to easily link the location ebay gave me with his WF screen name through some google searches, and ended up finding a ton of his dating profiles in the process where he stupidly had used the same exact name he registered his WF account with lmao. Let's just say he was far from a skinny Asian female.

I was about to mention that in here then I saw you remembered it too. You have a very distinctive setup when taking pics of your figures so it was easy to spot when I saw it on eBay. Especially as it was a British seller so I knew it wasn't you.
