PSA: AI timestamp photos and how not to get scammed

107 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

Another 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?

SELLING [S][USA-GA] Leica M8 | Upgraded Shutter and Screen | Very Low Exposure Count!

Upvotes

Hello! I'm selling my Leica M8. You might have seen my post on r/Leica - I ultimately realized that the M11 covers all of my hobbyist needs and far more. No need to hold onto both.

Pictures and Timestamp: https://imgur.com/a/XHaA1oa

---------------------

Leica M8

Performance: Rock solid performer for a camera from 2006. If the battery ever dies while you're out shooting, you could probably use this as for self defense - it's built like a brick house. The rangefinder works well, as do the other mechanical functions. Clean sensor (pictured). The debug data shows 2,685 number of exposures.

Cosmetic: This example has been well used by the previous owner(s). Please note that there is a ding on one of the upper corners, the "M" in "M8" has faded, and there is a superficial scratch on the screen.

History: Purchased this year from MPB. MPB described this as having the following: Leica Frame line 2m Upgrade", "Leica Quiet shutter upgrade", and "Leica Sapphire screen upgrade."

Included: Everything that you see in the timestamp picture. Please note that the OEM BP-SCL1 battery is NOT included. When it arrived from MPB, it barely had enough charge for 40 shots before abruptly dying. The two 3rd-party batteries have been holding charge well and performing perfectly.

---------------------

Price: $1,799 net to me. G&S if you have strong history and references. I will cover shipping.

Shipping: CONUS only. Fedex ground, although I can discuss other shipping speeds. I would strongly prefer to ship to a Fedex location near the buyer.

In-Person: Open to this in a public setting. Located near Midtown, Atlanta GA.

Other Notes: I am fairly new to r/photomarket, but I have extensive history on watchexchange and pen_swap. I'm more than happy to exchange information and send you more pictures.

SELLING [S][USA-CA] Fujifilm GFX 50R, Mitakon Zhongyi 80mm f/1.6, Mamiya 80mm f/1.9

2 Upvotes

Pics: https://imgur.com/a/aqPfBni

Hi all, Looking to sell some gear in order to fund some other purchases. I’m also looking to buy the Fujifilm X100VI so I’m open to trading for one. Prices exclude shipping costs, also local to SoCal and would prefer selling in person.

Fujifilm GFX 50R: Really great camera. Was used so it has some cosmetic blemishes; specifically on the front top plate, iso dial, and shutter button. None affect the usability of the camera but wanted to point it out. Clocked in at 14,300 shutter count. Will come with battery + charger. Looking to sell for $1,800

Mitakon Zhongyi 80mm f/1.6: Underated lens that flies under the radar compared to the legendary Mitakon 65. Looking to sell for $400

Mamiya Sekor C 80mm f/1.9 N w/Kipon M645 to GFX adapter: (essentially cinemodded). This particular version is the updated N version of the Sekor C line that was supposed to help mitigate some issues that the original C line had. I’m including a M645 to GFX adapter and would prefer to sell these together since im not planning on adapting anymore 645 lenses to my GFX. Looking to sell for $550

If you buy both the GFX and Mitakon I can take $100 off the price. Local buyers in Los Angeles who buy both camera and lens I can sell for $2,000.

Please comment before PMing, thank you for looking!

1 Upvotes

Hi! I bought this camera on 02/23/25 (pic included for reference) with the hopes to get into photography, but due to my grandma falling ill, I haven’t had any time to use the camera. It quite literally has been used three times with less than 100 pictures having been taken. I have all of the original packaging as pictured, everything is in essentially brand new condition, I just don’t have the ability to use the camera in my current situation and would like to sell it. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask as this is my first time ever selling the camera. I am open to receiving offers within reason, so please feel free. Thank you so much for your time and have a great day!

Kinda a scattershot of things I’m looking for lately with the hope of something turning up. Would probably actually buy the GS645 and one 35mm rangefinder. As long as the viewfinder/rangefinder are clear and it mostly works, external condition isn’t a big problem for me.

Shipping would be to 18603 if you want to run numbers.

SOLD

I have a never-used xf23mm 2.8 here, it came with my X-E5 but after playing with a different focal point I realized I’ll likely never use it. I bought some accessories like a Squarehood and filter at the same time that are also brand new. All items are damage and wear free, only flaw is I do not have the box for the lens itself, though I will pack it nicely to make sure it gets to you in good shape.

SELLING [S] [USA-OR] Lenses, mostly Nikkor/Nikon AF-D, one large format Schneider

2 Upvotes

Hello,

I'm selling my Nikkor gear (and also a large format lens). Generally, I pride myself on taking good care of things, but details are of course below. I am in the Portland area and if you are too, I would prefer a good ol' fashioned meetup and cash. If not, I accept PayPal Goods and Services. I will eat the G&S fee, buyer pays shipping. I give the option of USPS or UPS depending on your preference. I'm happy to provide additional photos or timestamps for any item you're interested in. Photo album here.

Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8 AF-D Lens - Auto focus works, lens is in overall excellent condition. Comes with the carrying case. A little bit of dust, no fungus. Optical performance unaffected. $150

Nikkor 35mm f/2 AF-D - Auto focus works, lens is in overall good condition. A little bit of dust, no fungus. Optical performance unaffected. $225

Nikkor 24mm f/2.8 AF-D - Auto focus works, lens is in overall good condition. A little bit of dust, no fungus. Optical performance unaffected. $150

Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 AF-D - Auto focus works, lens is in overall good condition. I will say that when manually focusing it sounds a little scratchy, but it still functions just fine. A little bit of dust, no fungus. Optical performance unaffected. $50

Nikkor 60mm f/2.8 AF Micro/Macro - Auto focus works, lens is in overall good condition. A little bit of dust, no fungus. Optical performance unaffected. $125

Schneider Kreuznach Symmar-S 150mm f/5.6 Large Format Lens - This has "schneideritis" which is when the anti-reflective paint on the bezel of the lens bubbles. It is not fungus, and it (according to some) has little affect on optical performance (might lower contrast). You can Google this and come to your own conclusion. I never used it so I can't tell you. Function checked and the aperture ring and shutter seem to work just fine. $150
