In July 2017, there was a post in the Alerts-Dallas Forum about hobbyists being photographed outside AMPs:
"Amp city photographer !!!"
In the 26th post in that thread, in his first post after joing Eccie, MW76 revealed he makes a living photographing hobbyists' vehicles outside AMPs, then he blackmails them by sending the images to the address shown as the owner of the vehicle by the license plate. This is what MW76 wrote:
"It's a numbers game. If we take enough license plate pics at whorehouses and send them to johns, someone will pony up the cash. It may only be 1 in 10 johns. But if we take enough pics in a day law of averages say one John will send us our $300 caught you at a whorehouse fee. Not all amp johns are Joe Six Pack. A lot of amp johns are married and have professional careers. These amp johns will gladly pay a couple hundred dollars for their pics to disappear. We're always people of our word. We always delete the photos when amp johns pony up. However, we still reserve the right to take pics again if they show back up at whorehouse."
