IT’S A TRAP.
I’ve used Craigslist in the past to mostly good ends… finding housing, buying a cheap GDC pass, selling an SC2 beta key…
… Been posting to it recently to try and find month-to-month housing starting from the fall and it’s turning out to be a really ugly process. Out of maybe five or six inquiries, at least two of them (didn’t follow up on all of them) have been scams.
The most annoying thing is that I can’t do anything about it, since I posted to Craigslist and these people are just responding to my ad… so they don’t have a craigslist account to report or anything.
Arrrrrrggghhhhhh.
(This seems like a topic that should be addressed in TIC too. >_> )
