Update:

Steve contacted me offline and explained that the suspect items were
uploaded years ago and he had since tried to delete them but his
efforts had somehow been blocked. I do not doubt his explanation.
Steve has been sharing his photos of authentic meteorites and I hope
he continues to contribute to the hobby and the meteorite community.

Best,
ken
