3x in the last two years my pictures have been stolen

A piece of advice to you all. Watermark all of your photos you post up here, with your name or screen name. I got this random PM from another board today, that I just joined, this makes the 3rd time that I KNOW OF, some one using my pics with a fake alias pretending to be me:

"Dave,
I was wondering if I should tell you this, but I decided to. I made this friend on-line last year. We've chatted and stuff through emails and he's also sent me pics of himself. (all this stuff was about working out) Now, here's the interesting stuff; all the pics he's sent me are of you. Now, I don't know if this guy is a friend of yours or what. He claims his name is Mark and that he lived in La Jolla CA. He also claimed he lost his mansion last year due to the fires in the area and that now he lives in Southern Oregon. I just wanted you to know this. That's all I wanted to tell you."

This is annoying as shit, people are such losers, i had this happen a couple years ago on some stupid dating web site and they wouldn't delete my pics from some gay German guys profile until I sent the staff a picture of me holding a spoon and my name written with a sharpie on a piece of paper. Those of you who are in 1/2 way decent shape save your self a head ache in the future and just water mark your pictures before you post them so no crazy gay guy steals them and pretends to be you.

I am impressed, I did not think your avatar was a picture of yourself. I would be interested in seeing some more photos. That one picture is very impressive to me. I promise I wont steal them!
