+rntmo95 Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Hi All, What does it mean when someone "discovers" a trackable? One of the ones I'm watching was "discovered on Instagram". Thanks Quote Link to comment

Thanks They found the Tracking Number. This typically happens in person, holding the actual Trackable item. But sometimes it's via a photograph of the tag, or a list of posted Tracking Numbers. If too many strange and varied "discoveries" happen in a short time, that Trackable might get locked (no more Tracking). Edited December 22, 2012 by kunarion Quote Link to comment
+ncfinn Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Generally dicovery means seeing the TB/GC in the cache or at an event, but not moving/taking it. These are legitimate. Discovery in Instagram means somebody saw a picture of it, but not the actual trackable. Most owners delete these logs. Try to find out where/how the picture was posted and try to delete it, or at least get the tracking number covered. Quote Link to comment
+rntmo95 Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 Oh Okay, oops. So I posted a pic of a geocoin that my brother had on Instagram, so I should've made sure the tracking number wasn't visible. Will fix that asap. Thanks for replies. Quote Link to comment
