Craigslist Scam - Home owner ruined after fake craigslist posting
A man’s house in Oregon was ransacked after a posting appeared on craigslist stating that his property was up for grabs. You can view the full article here. I always enjoy reading the oddities and strange circumstances that craigslist seems to produce. Craigslist is one of the most heavily visited sites in the United States and growing leaps and bounds internationally. To read a sad story like this makes one think what other types of scams are going on at craigslist? I recently reported about a lap top scam that is probably easily bilking dozens of people out of thousands of dollars each month. Does craigslist face any legal liability or responsibility for the system it manages? I would certainly contend yes, but Craig Newmark, and his altruistic persona are winning out in court after court case against every law suit. But the fact that craigslist allows criminals to flourish and innocent home owners to lose valuable possessions opens craigslist up to numerous potential law suits - I think it’s just going to take an attorney with the right “marketing” or spin to present the case to a jury. Expect settlements or protracted legal battles in the future for Craigslist.

Diane Siddons got the call from Brandie Darnell in the middle of the day. Darnell had seen Siddons’ house advertised for rent on Craigslist and thought it was a smokin’ deal: $800 a month for a five bedroom house in a Tampa Bay, Fla., suburb.
