Just looking for a bubble chair on ebay and came across someone selling a photo of a toddler in a vest blowing bubbles .. It's named child blowing bubbles and can see the same seller is selling pics of woman posing ect..

Just feel really uncomfortable about the one of the child and want to report it but can't see how on mobile? Dp has left the laptop at work so has to be on mobile! Can anyone help?

Can you request desktop view on your mobile and do it that way? I think you'll need to view it in browser, not in app.

Ive just had a look at this and it's an American seller who is selling a whole load of very odd photos ,it's strange but why do you want to report it ?

In desktop view there's a report button on right of screen level with postage and description tab headers.

It looks just like old family type photos not sure why you would want to report them

I think you are over thinking this.

I just don't like the idea of someone selling photos he's 'picked up from car boot sales ect' or someone else's child to the sort of people who are buying pictures of 'woman sat on motorbikes' ect, I know I wouldn't like a stranger buying pics of my daughter

There was another thread on here the other day about a seller with vintage pics of young children. He was calling them things like 'young boy on see through right shorts' and sold/was selling a lot. MumsnetHQ deleted it as it had a link to his page and it was drawing more attention to him I think.
There is someone on the eBay listing page you can report to eBay if you do think the pics are wrong.

Meant to say 'young boy wearing see through tight shorts'
Hmm it was very inappropriate descriptions.

People buy and sell photos all the time. Just because you don't like the idea doesn't make it wrong.

The other person with the pictures of boys was completely different. The titles of the listings and pricing made it obvious it was a front for something more sinister.

This appears to be just a picture of a child.

The photos sold by that seller are innocuous family photos, there isnt one suggestive photo in any of those. If the owners didn't want anyone else seeing them they would have destroyed them.

They aren't breaking any ebay rules so there doesn't seem much point in reporting them.
Even if they actually were pics of your own child, unless the actual photo had been stolen from you it wouldn't be breaking any laws or rules?
