Thank you! | Speaking from personal years of experience I can give you a my solid opinion on this matter.
To answer your questions is not so simple, but it's both a No and Yes.
They cannot track/identify you based on photos you had placed on your old computer and never used on listings before.
They can possibly maybe (never been confirmed) trace/identify link you to another account if you have uploaded the images before on other listings.
Why risk it? its so easy to just strip the exif data using free tools, as well as alter the shape/size of the images before re-using them on new accounts/listings.
Goodluck, stay safe.
