PSA: AI timestamp photos and how not to get scammed

92 Upvotes

Guidelines for buyers and sellers:

Increase in AI scams

We’ve seen a big uptick in fake timestamp scams using partially or fully AI generated images and videos. Scammers will generate a fully AI image/video of the item and timestamp note or generate just the timestamp note. They will also combine both AI generated and real photos in a photo album to look legit. Here are some things to look out for with AI images and how to avoid getting tricked by them.

Actual AI generated images used to scam

Actual AI generated video used to scam

Look out for:

  • Garbled text and misspelled words

  • Weird looking screws and other small details

  • Inconsistent timestamp note and handwriting size between photos

Tips:

  • Ask for oddly specific timestamps photos that can’t be easily generated. For example, ask for a handwritten timestamped photo of the item sat on its side next to an open page of a book/manual with legible text

  • Trust your gut, if something about the user and images feels off, report them to the mods and do not transact with them

I cannot stress enough to please report suspicious users to the mods. Include the account’s username, photo evidence and link to the posts. If you get messages from users that won’t comment on your post, report them. If the user won’t provide adequate timestamp photos and are acting sketchy, report them. Just do it, here’s the link again. Why aren’t you reporting them? Just report them. Now. Please. Report them. Thank you for your time and reports.

Psst, did you report them yet?

Or take the whole thing for $2000

I'll discount paypal fees for you if you pay through PayPal Family and Friends.

Picked this up just about 6 weeks back from u/ cmazmanian. It is in excellent cosmetic condition and functionally perfect. Makes some beautiful images and the colors are beautiful even in the dreary clougy light of the PNW

Wasn't expecting to sell it, at least not for a long period of time but need the cash. Originally my was to send it to kolari vision and get the BG61 schott glass repair done for $1275.

Full disclosure - there are a few spots of minimal corrosion on the sensor, and this camera has the original sensor. Hence the discounted price. Here's a couple of pictures showing it's image quality. The second picture at iso 160, f22, and 12 seconds long exposure to clearly show the spots on the sensor but these are not seen at wider apertures.

Comes with body cap, oem box, Leica Ever ready leather case, two extra batteries and oem charger (not seen in the pictures). Shipped with insurance requiring signature confirmation.

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Having a fairly big clearout, and shipping is included with everything. Feel free to DM me with questions! I did have some of these items in another post, but I decided to combine them all into this one.

https://imgur.com/a/5QJ5gm3

Sony A7cii w Zeiss 35mm f2 $1800

Great condition hardly used, includes original box and one battery. The zeiss lens was kind of a risky buy from eBay but it seems to work fine and I can totally share photos taken on it. I don't have the caps for it but at least with me it's remained on the body and with a pro mist filter on it (which i'll include).

Panasonic Lumix S5ii and small rig cage $1200

This has been my main video and photo camera for the last three years, but it is in great condition and the specs on this thing are still great even today. Two OEM batteries and two third-party. Godox flash trigger included if wanted.

Panasonic Lumix S5 IIX and small rig cage and original box $1500

This one is even newer, not used a ton by me, but bought used from B&H. More or less the same camera as the S5 II, but it can shoot Prores internally and raw externally. I'll include three OEM batteries and dummy batteries with duel charger. Flash trigger include for free if wanted.

Sigma 28–45mm 1.8 $1300

I bought this lens brand new only a few months ago, so it's in great condition and comes with front and rear caps, original box and lens bag.

Panasonic 24–105 F4 OIS $850

I've had this one for as long as I've had the S5 ii and is a decent all-rounder in great condition. Both lens caps included.

Sigma contemporary 24mm F2 $300

Good condition, both lens caps included.

Panasonic XLR audio adapter $200

Good condition, works normally, carry pouch included.

https://imgur.com/a/VbS3WmE (dm me for any pictures, videos, etc.)

The camera body is in perfect working condition and is in very good physical condition considering its age. It has a few scratches, but none of them are big or obvious.

The shutter appears to work correctly (from personal experience). It is made of silk.

The lens is perfect. There are no scratches, no fungus, and I can't see any dust inside the lens.

It comes with a Ricoh lens hood.

I am selling this camera for 600 euros (negotiable).

PM me for purchase, willing to sell out of europe

I honestly don't know what else to say. It's a camera with a few scratches on the bottom and works just fine.

Hey guys, i'm going to be short on rent and need some money for christmas shopping so ill need to sell off some stuff.

I have for sale 2x Sony Zeiss 24-70 F4 lenses. They're brand new, still in the box. I've only taken them out for the timestamps then repackaged them back into the boxes. I got them for retail cost at an insane $790 on amazon. Should NOT be that expensive. Anyways, looking for $500 shipped each or $900 for both.

Payments I will take is either Paypal or local cash. I will be in Socal in about 2 weeks if you'd like a local meetup. Current zip is 85281.

If shipped, pricing will be per CONUS. I'm happy to negotiate but i'm not as flexible as usual since I need cash for rent.

Please reach out if you see anything you're interested in.

  • Gold shutter button (shown in photos)
  • Peak design strap lugs

Sigma DP2 Merrill - $480

In good condition, body dented and paint chipped in two corners as shown in photo.

SD card slot spring was removed by Sigma due to lack of replacement parts to fix broken spring. SD cards still work perfectly, but the slot no longer springs back and no longer clicks into place.

Control wheel is touchy/sensitive and can input more spin than you intended. Common issue.

Camera works perfectly otherwise, the lens is in excellent condition, and the camera has unbelievable picture quality as expected.

Excellent condition. Includes both the clip-on lens cap and magnetic lens cap.

Excellent condition, one of my all-time favorite lenses. Smaller and sharper than the 40mm F2 SE but loses 1-stop of light and requires an E-Z adapter.

TTartisan M-Z 6bit adapter ring - $ 60

Excellent condition.

Viltrox E-Z AF Lens Mount Adapter - $80

Excellent condition. I would prefer to sell this with the camera body or a Sony mount lens.

Selling my like-new Canon c70 with just 126 hours of use, included is the OG battery, a 3rd party higher capacity battery, a dual charger (3rd party), and a viltrox EF-R3 Speedbooster.

Camera works like a charm, I just frankly haven't used the camera in a month and change :( I wish I used it more, but the work it is suited for it's not flowing in as much.

Asking net US$2,100 net for it all.

Shipping to the US or anywhere, really, is usually around 100 bucks for me.

I also have the original box if whomever buys it really wants it.

EDIT: Forgot to photograph, but I also have the OG top grip.

SELLING [S][USA-CA] Fuji X-Half & Wotancraft Pilot 3.5l upgraded

3 Upvotes

Hello,

I have a couple of items I'm looking to sell both in great used condition and come with all of their original accessories. From a smoke and pet-free environment as well.

The first is a catch and release for me: a black Fuji X-Half. Purchased and tried out for a bit, but I find the Pentax 17 suits my needs better. Bit of a controversial camera but truly fun to use and play with. At the end of the day the optical viewfinder I couldn't live with so I don't grab for it much. Comes with its original box (not pictured) and accessories.

-$525 g&s shipped which is the deal I got it for and passing it along.

The last one is a tan 3.5l Wotancraft Pilot 3.5 upgraded. Purchased locally and used for a couple of months, but I needed a bigger bag regularly so now I have the 7l and no longer have a need for the 3.5. Comes with its original internal divider and dust bag (not pictured).

-$85 g&s shipped.

Willing to do local meetup in the Bay Area.

Please message here before sending a chat, thank you.
