PSA: when people post screenshot of Buying / selling GME use fotoforensics.com to check if it’s been edited (using /u/XtraLyf 's post as an example)
There's also other ways to fake screenshots. For example on a jailbroken iPhone using flex you can literally change the content in a UILabel and then take the screenshot. No image editing necessary.
