I am very aware of this as my wife is chairman of jurors of the Australian AIPP awards committee and co-incidentally a friend of the alleged perp.
Frankly the past month has been hell for the AIpp board & awards committee and all concerned, and our industry as a whole worldwide as this person has entered her recently discovered to be fraudulent images in Australian & International comps (NZ, USA & UK) for many years.
Now the committee has to backtrack & determine the correct prizewinners, recover significant prizemonies ($30k+) and revisit the rules of entry to prevent this happening ever again!
Additionally, the entrant has rightfully been stripped of all awards & memberships, lost reputation, friends & business and many of us are now concerned for her wellbeing, regardless of the circumstances.
