I guess (but I don't know, someone correct me if I'm wrong) they could do a screen grab, then open it up in photo editing software, crop the image to include only the photo, and maybe then remove the watermark. Someone looking for shortcuts is probably going to move on to some other picture rather than go to so much trouble (hopefully). I guess for someone dishonest, there is always a way to get around most anything.
Update: I did hear back from Delores. She has sent the scammer / thief a cease and desist notice, and I gave her the email address for reporting copyright violations to dot tk. | Thanks for taking care of this.
