Sexy Frauds in Flickr

About Sexy Frauds in Flickr

As I didn't find a group that would target the issue I'm creating this group dedicated to tipping of *sexy* frauds in Flickr.

The rationale is the same as with Frauds on Flickr (see their group description at the bottom) but geared towards the accounts that are targeting the sexy side of Flickr. That is exposing flirty or explicitly sexy users who are clear frauds *or* discussing wether someone is a fraud or not.

This targeting makes it slightly more complicated than the Frauds on Flickr group's focusing on 'family-friendly' photos as it seems. The thing is that the 'sexy side' of Flickr as the web in general always includes a certain amount of pseudonym usage and at least educated people also understand that things aren't what they might appear to be.

Having said that it's a complex puzzle. Regardless of the fun and excitement of role plays and the opportunity that the web gives us to appear as anyone we'd ever wanted to leading others to believe something that isn't true is problematic.

So here we go. No lynching, please. Only fact supported arguments. And remember that it's always possible that things are more complex that they seem. Someone *might* have a right for presenting those photos here, too, even as a hoax. In most cases they probably don't but it's possible.

GROUP DESCRIPTION OF Frauds on Flickr will work as a guideline here, too:

This group deals with Frauds on Flickr. Especially:
1. People claiming stolen pics as theirs;
2. People making up stories to get sympathy;
3. People claiming to be somone they are not. ... (sexy flickr fraud addition: not including 'responsible' pseudonym use)

Everyone should know that internet is full is of frauds. Unfortunately, there are frauds on Flickr as well. The best defence is always a healthy skepticism.

No harassment will be tolerated. If you are abusive here, you will be warned and then tossed. Don't start a flame war and don't carry on a topic that has been closed into another topic.
