Being an artist myself, (B&W film photography/furniture maker) I come across this all the time. When it comes to making fast $$ some people just don't care. I've had scanned copies of photos sold as originals, only to be contacted by the new owner when it fades. I've seen some knockoffs of my smaller furniture items for sale on websites like etsy. It's one of the main reason I no longer do art festivals. To many people with smart phone cameras looking for ideas because their to lazy to create their own!!
