Even though I own the watch and they do not.... this collector told me he actually sent his own Rolex in a trade and never received the watch in return (obviously because this guy doesn’t actually own it)

What am I supposed to do about this? Someone is going around using photos of my rightfully owned watch to scam others... can that person use the serial from the photos and report it stolen?


Not sure what to do here. I guess this can happen to anyone. But I’m at a loss

Help us understand how this stranger on Instagram could deduce you were the buyer? How is there a connection that the seller’s pictures led him to you.

I think that is the first step.

Anybody can report it stolen to Rolex, buy only after filing a police report with the details of the theft.
