Use the search feature on the forum. There's various links and I think in the sticky perhaps. Search around, and there are specific options to learn to use.

First, after taking the picture and placing it on your computer, delete meta-data associated with it. (Google)
Then you must upload to an anonymous upload service that doesn't record your IP (couple TOR hidden services provide this).

As far as the taking of the picture, do so against a white wall. If paranoid, take picture against a different colored/textured background such as taking a picture of your product with a poster board behind it.

Make sure GPS tagging of pictures is disabled on your smartphone, and also use a 3rd-party program to remove EXIF data. Also open the pic in Paint, edit a single pixel, and save.

Reece is a scammer.

He took my $1400, then gave me a bogus tracking number.

He has read all my messages.

People should be careful with this guy.
