The max amt of ribbons per row is 3, Their completely out of order, The Seal device. "Wrong Size"

I will add that the campaign ribbon has a star on it that is up-side down as well as all the other things - ribbons misaligned and out of order, stacked four to a row instead of three (does the Navy allow for that? I didn't think they did, but then again, I've never seen it in practice), no campaign star on the OIF ribbon, no stars on the National Defense Service Medal (should have had at least one), wrong size Seal badge, and probably missing other Navy ribbon devices, such as an "E," among others. In the Army, we call this "soup sandwich."

Lol. Any reason why a supposed SEAL would not have at least Expert marksmanship for his pistol and rifle quals? (Completely ignoring that they somehow outrank a plethora of other awards)
This must be a Halloween costume, right???

The rack appears not to be centered and the fabric of the shirt even appears to be snagged or not flat between the pins of the rack.

This would appear to be a US Navy Khaki uniform....though any SCPO or 1SG or Drill Instructor/Sergeant would find plenty wrong just with the press, loose strings/threads etc. Since the individual starts the rack wearing a US Navy SEAL trident, one could assume the individual was trying to mimic an Sailor...which goes to hell with the first ribbon worn (Marine Corps Reserve Ribbon), an obsolete ribbon, at the top of the rack. Even had the individual served in the USMCR he would know that a reserve ribbon does not top the precedence chart. This is followed by a Silver Star, Navy Meritorious Unit Commendation, Joint Service Achievement Medal, the first of two copies of the National Defense Service Medal, Afghanistan Campaign Medal, Navy Rifle Marksmanship Ribbon, Navy and Marine Corps Combat Action Ribbon, Navy Pistol Marksmanship Ribbon, Iraq Campaign Medal w.bronze star device, NDSM 2, Army Overseas Service Ribbon, Selected Marine Corps Reserve Medal, Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary Medal, Navy & Marine Corps Overseas Service Ribbon. So, dude would have to be at least 85 years old, and served at least 50 years in the Marine Corps, Navy and Army, to have earned the obsolete first one (MCRR) and the 21st century ones, never mind they are all out of precedence from the git go, regardless of which way the rack is oriented.

Entire ribbon rack is upside down, the campaign star gave it away. He has an Army overseas service ribbon and the order of precedence is a soup sandwich. The edges of the rack are also not lined up. This looks like crap and he needs to punch himself in the face.

Let's see...2 NDSMs instead of 1 with a star, ICM w/ upside down star, GWOT is worn before GWOTEM (should be the opposite), Overseas Service Ribbon should have a 2 on it at the very least (since he's awarded the ICM and GWOTEM). Too many more to point out, so I'll stop there...
