Upsetting that in an article all about photos being used to scam people, there's not a single sample of an offending image!

I mean, I think I get why. But still, it's the first thing I want to see when I read a story like this.

Yeah, I had to do a google to guess what the images might look like. https://www.google.com/search?q=James+Scott+Geras&tbm=isch
Haha, yeah my thought process reading the article was basically:

- Why aren't there any photo examples?

- OK, I get why not

- But still. Couldn't they find a way to add some photos?

Honestly it might be helpful for these guys to have a story about their situation in a relatively large publication. Just send it to people each time it happens. Works without pictures I guess
