Didn’t know where else to put this. It’s not listed in the cpk sales area:
Does that top edge look sharp to anyone else? May just be the lighting or I’m seeing things
Edit: deleted link. Sketchy

Thanks for sharing all these I’m going to have to google these later today and read more about the parts/equipment/products you designed.
Quite fascinating. Thank you

That’s what I was thinking.
What say the seller? I saw it left CPK for sale and moved to individual. Strange.

This guy had another sale thread for the Behemoth Chopper and the photo was called out as being AI. The thread was closed and pic removed. So this new sale thread pops up and it’s a totally different pic and note than the BC sale thread had and it’s also being questioned.
Sounds shady to me!

I strongly suspect that someone has hacked Rob's account (NUTRAMAC). The real Rob is an OG but unfortunately I do not have his contact number to alert him. I have dealt with Rob on many occasions and I do not recognize the handwriting for this Shiv ad plus these ads not matching in Rob's style of advertising! The hacker charlatans are getting very good with generation AI "handwritten" notes. Buyer beware!

I reported the thread about an hour ago. I dont think they have enough evidence to act on, but they were made aware.
edit to add response i recieved - "No evidence of a hack. The IP has been consistent for many months, well back into 2025. We'll just have to keep an eye on the listings."

It's up to the buyer to be vigilant and ask for more verification pictures, videos, etc. There's not much you can do with people willing to throw down F&F money.
I know I wouldn't be satisfied with a single picture that doesn't show the entire knife. Not to mention that none of the pictures in that poster's history show any semblance of consistency.
