Anything you say, boss

1. Sure it's not a virus thingy? nt

[blogslut]

2. Yeah

I would avoid that person like the plague and don't download the software.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

4. It's Messed Up

A lot of the job postings are fraudulent too.

However, I have sold a car and furniture on craigslist.

[Donnachaidh]

5. yeah, there seems to be lots of fraudulent job postings on CL

While my DH was looking for work, we'd check daily and might find ONE legitimate listing every couple of weeks. Lots of scams though.

6. I'm not slamming Craigslist

I'm just saying that particular response is FOS but I guess you already knew that. ;)

[Mnemosyne]

3. I always get "job" offers. "Need cash?" n/t

[sinkingfeeling]

7. I'd totally ignore it.

[bemildred]

8. Never click on a link in an email. Never. nt

[nunyabidness]

13. Never? OK, then never do e-commerce.

Never click on links that you are suspect of. If you have any doubts, simply don`t follow the link. And certainly don`t download software thru a link on craigslist. But NEVER click on a link in a email? C`mon.

[bemildred]

19. It is possible, when necessary, to cut and paste into a browser.

There are other things that are possible too, but for your average naive Microsoft Outlook user, the best thing to tell them is never click on a link in an email, in my experience. If you make it too complicated, they will not change what they do.

9. Nope. If this guy wants to know if it's the same....

he asks for you to email him a photo then he decides.


I never click on links in email unless it's someone I know and I'm actually expecting a specific link from this person.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

14. There Were Photos

[pipi_k]

20. No kidding?

Well I must say he must be one stupid scammer then.

Along with being a total fraud.

[cbdo2007]

10. Why are you even posting this here???

[DemocratSinceBirth]

11. .

[DemocratSinceBirth]

12. Because I Paid To Post Here. That's Why. And Exposing Scammers Is An Altruistic And Public Service

[cbdo2007]

21. But what does this have to do with anything politics or even our internet security?

I get 100 spam messages a day from people and easily a handful whenever posting something for sale on craigslist. I'm just wondering why fill up GD with something that happens to all of us all day every day.

This is like me running over something in the road on the way to work and then getting on GD to tell everyone else to watch out for it.

[liberalhistorian]

22. If you don't like the thread, then there's a simple

solution. IGNORE IT. Sheesh.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

23. Thank You

The reason I posted it is to highlight the low lifes who prey on people during hard times.

If I didn't need the money I would give it all to the Salvation Army, Goodwill, or The Mustard Seed.

[Retrograde]

17. Salvation Army and the like have gotten very picky about furniture

unless it's in perfect, new condition they won't touch it.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

18. All The Furniture Is Literally In Brand New Condition

I went to Rooms To Go Surplus where they sell "sratch and dent" furniture and my furniture was in better conditilon.
