There's an amazing jeweler that I know who doesn't sell online for exactly these reasons. They figure that as soon as their designs are posted online, they'll be stolen. They can't afford that, since it's their business, so you can only buy from them in person.
I think it's a risk you have to decide to take if you're going to put stuff on those forums.
