An influencer that’s worked with the likes of Sony and Uniqlo just got called out for plagiarizing stock photos. Daryl Aiden Yow has over 100,000 followers, but Mothershipcaught him red-handed re-posting stock photos from sites like Shutterstock, often editing them and adding un-true captions. In response, Yow took down his photos and posted a full apology. The incident is another example of why the FAA has been cracking down on influencer fraud as brands scramble to create guidelines around using the powerful marketing tactic.
