Here is one scam. A friend emailed to ask me if the car advertised in the South Coast Craigslist (our area) was fake or not. He’s asked before and they were always bogus.

southcoast craigslist Road Runner scam

washington DC craigslist scam

How did I spot it? He sent me the link and I ran the email address through Google and it gave me 2 links … one for an identical car in Washington, DC and another for a car being sold on Craigslist that had been removed.

ALWAYS check before making such a purchase online
