I received this message today. It’s a scam. This is a message for my Flickr friends to be aware. The account is under the name of Rob Bonaldi.
Beware: (February 12, 2025)
Today I received a very official looking email reporting to be from the “DMCA Compliance Team”. The message had been sent as a Flickr message from “gck6vwnkzi” flickr account. The message did not state which image was supposedly in violation of copyright but did contain a link to download a PDF. I did some investigation and found that this had a high probability of being a Phishing Scam.
If you receive this type of message “do not download” the PDF. I sent a message back to the sender stating that I do not open unsolicited links from strangers and to send me a flickr link to the image in question. I have not had a response.
En parcourant le net a la recherche d'informations sur mes vues stereos, il m'arrive souvent de tomber sur une suite d'une de mes stereoviews quand il s'agit scénettes ou une version différente. Une version colorisée que j'ai en noir et blanc ou colorisée autrement et beaucoup de curiosité liée à la stéréoscopie attire mon œil.
Au début j'enregistrai tout, et disons que mon système de classement ne doit pas être au point car je ne les retrouve jamais quand j'en ai besoin...
Par contre, je me retrouve avec des milliers de stéréos dans des fichiers dont je n'ai pas la moindre idée de ce qui m'a amené un jour à les enregistrer....
J'ai donc décidé d'essayer de faire jouer ma mémoire seule, avec quelques notes manuscrites autant vous dire que cela a été un fiasco total et sans appel !
Je vais donc essayer si Flickr me le permet d'enregistrer ici tous les documents en rapport avec une de mes stereoviews présentée sur :
www.flickr.com/photos/184133722@N04/
et
www.flickr.com/photos/193116254@N07/with/51214942003/
Un raccourci sur l'original vous renverra ici.

En aucun cas je ne mettrai les coordonnées du site marchand.
Seuls les blogs et les références des musées pourront apparaître.
Certains se donnent un mal de chien à « brouiller/Cacher » leurs photos .
Elles sont toutes libres de droit d'auteur ayant dépassée le temps du copyright !
On peut trouver à télécharger dans toutes les universités du monde qui ont un département mémoire et photographique. De même certains musées et bibliothèques laissent aussi ce droit sous réserve de non-exploitation commerciale. Essayer par région ou bien souvent est conservés une part de l'histoire de celle-ci, multiplié par pays...
En fait seuls les dealers ne sont pas du tout prêt à vous laisser télécharger... Mais comme moi vous savez aussi bien qu'en informatique beaucoup de choses sont possibles ! Quant à l'utilisation de toutes ces ressources, pour faire des anaglyphes, et surtout une source documentaire qui Permets de dater et mettre un nom sur le photographe de votre collection personnelle de stereoviews. Jamais rien ne remplacera la vision d'un tirage original via un stéréoscope, et là comme on dit en France :« Y a pas photo ! »
Juste un plus d'informations visuelles pour passionnés (ées).
@mitiés à toutes et tous.

While browsing the web looking for information about my stereo views, I often come across a suite of one of my stereoviews when it comes to sceneries or a different version.
A colorized version that I have in black and white or otherwise colorized and a lot of curiosity related to stereoscopy attracts my eye.
At first I recorded everything, and let’s say that my filing system must not be up to date because I never find them when I need them...
On the other hand I find myself with thousands of stereos in files that I have no idea of what led me to record them one day....
So I decided to try to play my memory alone, with some handwritten notes as well as tell you that it was a total fiasco and without appeal!
So I will try if Flickr allows me to save here all the documents related to one of my stereoviews presented on :
www.flickr.com/photos/184133722@N04/
&
www.flickr.com/photos/193116254@N07/with/51214942003/
A shortcut to the original will return you here.
www.flickr.com/photos/187371730@N02/with/51298812180/
In no case will I put the coordinates of the merchant site.
Only the blogs and references of the museums will be able to appear.
Some go to a lot of trouble to «blur/ Hide» their photos .
They are all copyright-free having exceeded the time of copyright!
One can find to download in all the universities of the world that have a memory and photographic department. In the same way, some museums and libraries also leave this right subject to commercial non-exploitation.Try by region or often is preserved part of the history of this one, multiplied by country...
In fact only dealers are not at all ready to let you download... But like me you know as well as in computer science many things are possible! As for the use of all these resources, to make anaglyphs, and especially a documentary source that Allows to date and put a name on the photographer of your personal collection of stereoviews.
Nothing will ever replace the vision of an original print via a stereoscope, and there as they say in France : «Y a pas photo ! » ( Understanding it is a given.)
so i found this cell phone at work.
it was likely dropped by an audience member seeing a show. the battery was dead, so i turned it in, and it sat in the box office for 2 months... its a nice cell phone, and i suspect that the person either had insurance, or was rich enough that they just got a new one.. so it was given to me to do whatever i wanted with it. i figured, ebay right?
UGH. for the 3rd time in a row, the phone has sold to an ebay scammer. essentially what happens is the auction closes, and then i get a series of emails in broken english explaining that they wish to ship the phone to Nigeria, and will include an extra $100, then i get a fake email from paypal saying the funds have been transferred and once i ship the phone and give them a tracking number, paypal will release the money... obviously bullshit... but now for the 3rd time, the same scam. its getting really frustrating, esp since it costs me money to list things on ebay.
this is also why, i suspect, my debit card was canceled by my bank last week. i just want to sell this damn phone... i need the money, and im selling it for literally half price.

I work for a bank and I’ve just been made aware of a very sophisticated scam.
The usual text we all receive that pretends to be from your mobile provider comes through with a link to click. If you touch the link it drops a piece of spyware into your phone and empties every penny from your bank account.
If you get one of these, please block the number it comes from and delete the text.
DO NOT TOUCH THE LINK
Have to pay $5 for the wall.Then have to pay gangstas $5 for painting in " their hood" or get cracked with bat.Too broke 4 both so i'll take my chances with illegal yards thank u.
SCAM ALERT: Windsor wrestler aka Gage Trusty never shipped me shoes. I sent r&b inflicts, black cb3's & rwb omnis for all black varners. Claims his post office didnt give a tracking # which is bullshit. Also said that the post office said y address was invalid and that they lost the package. Don't deal with this guy!!!
I should have done my research before placing my order 2 weeks ago. So here I am using my flickr network to warn you all.... do NOT buy anything from OzDirect.
I feel like living in Nigeria....why would it take so long for the ACCC to kick in. My funds were cleared the very same day when the ACCC made the media release. How is this possible I ask?

I will delete this post as soon as I have received the ordered item or a full refund

Elena is 30 with her birthday on May 27th. Height is 5,7 and weight 54 kg. She lives in Kirov. She has finished medical university and worked as the second surgeon in a small clinic for 3 years.
She is single with neither children, nor boyfriend and sometimes feels very lonely. It’s difficult to know why “her” pictures appear in scam forums.
Her father cleared off when her mother was pregnant, and so was brought up by just her mother who has since died.
She never got round to asking me for money

Once you click on the "Report Item" link, these are the options to choose. The item numbers will be entered automatically by eBay based on which listing you reported, and rather than get the item number of every other auction, I thought it would simply be easier to type in the line showing in the photo.
All the evidence seems to suggest that something shady is going on in this seller's listings. They all start out at $0.99 to generate bidding interest, but it seems the seller has another eBay account, o***t(1) with the following 30-day bid history:
Total bids: 403
Items bid on: 139
Bid activity (%) with this seller: 100%
It seems this is evidence of shill bidding, which means using other accounts to jack up the bidding price. When o***t(1) ends up winning these auctions, it exposes the second highest bidder's highest bid, and once the auction ends the seller might offer the 2nd highest bidder a "Second Chance" purchase option, claiming that the highest bidder is no longer a registered user or otherwise failed to honor their winning bid.
(note: the tags entered are the names of some of the Pullips that had been in this seller's listings)
The bloody death toll of WWI had left so many bereaved that people who had never been able to say goodbye to loved ones flocked to mediums in hopes of re-establishing contact. One of the key figures stirring the revival in Spiritualism was Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who had himself lost a son, a brother and nine other relatives in the war. He became a proselytizer for Spiritualism, writing books about it, including two in 1918 alone, and became one of the public leaders of the movement.
Contemptuous of frauds and fakes, Houdini desperately wanted to believe in things undreamt of in his philosophy, but he was continually disappointed. His time at the carnivals had made him aware of many of the tricks used by unscrupulous mediums, and his experience as an illusionist made it easy for him to disprove them. He began to resent how he and bereaved people in general had been bamboozled by scam-artists who preyed on vulnerability, and he grew active in exposing them. He stepped up his exposure of dishonest mediums with his book “A Magician Among the Spirits,” which revealed the secrets behind floating handkerchiefs, “spirit hands,” and messages from the beyond. Following the deaths of Houdini and Doyle, Spiritualism fell into disrepute, once again the province of carnival fortune tellers and con men.
