proof photos for sell on ebay

I'm running across alot of these "proof" photos being sold on eBay. Why would someone purchase photos of celebs signing autographs? Is this for people who sell fakes trying to use them to help pass off the forgeries they sell? These are just a few screen shots but I'm starting to see more and more of these up for sell.

I think you're right. I'd love to hear another argument for this, but I don't think there's one.

This looks like possible fraud on multiple levels to me. First, I question whether phamousfotos even has the rights to these images. Second, and more obvious, I can only imagine these are being sold with fraudulent intent.
