Exactly. We know that people sell for others and just list it as their own anyway.

Example: somebody was selling a car on here a few months ago and said it was his own. Lets say his name was John. The album linked to for pictures of the car had the caption "Mike's Camaro" in it, under "John's Albums" and was a new upload. Gee, I wonder...
