  Why we think so? 

This image appears to be a photo of a person wearing a two-piece tracksuit or athleisure set. The image has been matched by Google Lens to dozens of listings from major retailers like Amazon, Fashion Nova, and AliExpress, confirming that this is a widely used commercial catalogue/model photo. There are no visible QR codes, embedded links, or risky content in the picture, and scans for scams or AI-generated content found no red flags. There is also no evidence of digital manipulation or AI generation — the image is authentic and in common use. The most important note: because this is a popular stock image, it could easily be copied into scam listings or impersonation ads. As an original document, it is authentic, but if it is being used to verify a product, listing, or seller, you should cross-check with the source, as many fraudulent sellers use freely available catalogue photos.
