Yeah, well, that would be fraud wouldn't it? And how is that license
related? You could do that with any image, irrespective of license and

Even free isn't free in most cases. You can't stick GPL in GFDL or

public domain- you can do more things with it than GFDLd work. It's
more free than 'free'.
