Exif Data Used To Track Potter Fraudster
The Times have reported that the person who painstakingly photographed every page of the latest Harry Potter book and posted it online before it was officially released may be tracked by the digital fingerprint left in the Exif meta data of the images posted.
Apparently the camera in use was a Canon Rebel and the serial number (560151117) has already been posted online at digg.com. Canon have admitted that they would be able to track the probable store the camera was purchased in and if it had ever been serviced may even have the details of the camera owner!
Read the full report here and if you have lent out your Canon rebel recently double check the serial number!!Labels: Equipment, General, Issues
