Depends on the program you use to crop and how you save the file, photoshop saves a thumbnail of the original

I gathered one person got their money back, soooo how exactly is that “nailing” him. Did the police get involved. Why haven’t they filed with the post office for fraud?

3 people at least have gotten their refund, they have everything down to the guys home address and pictures of his house, check out the cliffnotes, only thing stopping them is they dont have the authority to make the moves

Scammer still wins. Just saying…

I wonder what really can be done in a situation like this. Personal lawsuits might be the best option.
