Possible Scammer

Hi fellas, there is an account goes by the name "SUPERLATIVETIME" stole and uploaded a picture of my 6542 without my permission for a possible sell.

I confronted them on IG and he immediately removed the pic and blocked me instantly.
They could have just apologies or simply tag me as the rightful owner of this watch but removing it and blocked me right away seems quite dodgy and suspicious.
As they are posting as a watch dealer and not a blogger, i think i should let the others know about this.

Please be careful if you are planning to purchase from this company.

Thank you
Kind regards.

I wonder what "vintage Rolex accredited" means? I'm unfamiliar with this term.
