Craigslist
reviews and complaints

I answered an ad for a trailer 2005 pace american shadow gt for sale for the amount
Of $1800.00 the seller used a name of judy taylor, posted on craigs list, I contacted
Her on 06/01/2018, she said her husband had died and she wanted to sell this trailer she said she just moved to omaha nebraska, and that ebay was taking the payment and will handle the delivery, it was all a scam, I reported it to ebay and ic3
I was taken for 2800 dollars because she said it needed to be insured for delivery, I would like all of my money back for this transaction, I am a disabled veteran, and live on a fixed income, and can not afford to lose my savings,
My name is ronald harris, my phone number is [protected]

Im so very upset and very disgusted that craiglist allows people to sell and give animals away for free!? Why? Alot of these animals are abused, murdered and used for bait in pitbull fighting. Please please end this practice and prohibit any selling or giving animals away for free. Im an animal advocate and have seen lots of sad cases of what happens to innocent animals sold and especially free on craiglist

I have had 2 different people come to my home, looking for items which they both said were craiglist ads. I have never listed anything on Craigslist. Nor has anyone in my family. These people have my home address but we don't have the items they say the ad says we do.

Both of these people came to our home within a week looking for items, someone named Tyler is selling using our home address. Of courage, no one at my home is named Tyler nor has anyone at my home posted/listed anything on Craiglist.

How can we file a complaint about someone using our address to sell items?

Here is her reply on the trailer;
Thank you very much for getting back to me but I would like to clarify some things first. I am selling the trailer at this price because my husband passed away not long ago (he was very sick) and this trailer brings me bad memories and that's the reason why I want to sell it asap. Another reason for selling it is because I work in military and right now i'm on a military base. We are training and getting ready to leave the country. The trailer is already at the shipping company
Ready for delivery because someone agreed to buy it, but in the end he never got the loan. For this reason, the shipping is already paid for. I will use ebay in this transaction for our protection. If you are not aware of this program, you should know that it will allow you to test and inspect the trailer before paying me. The inspection period will be set to 7 days and I think that is enough time for you to make a decision about the trailer. If you won`t like my trailer you notify ebay and you send it back at my expense. But I assure you that won't be the case.

If you want to continue the purchase, please reply with your full name, delivery address and phone number so I can start the transaction with ebay and ask them to send you the terms of this transaction. (with no further obligation or fees). Thank you

People claiming to be employees of Craigslist are frequently abusing customers of the site asking questions and Craigslist either tolerates it or they are in fact employees. If you ask a question about an ad - they go and flag all of your other ads and when you ask them why they give you some vague answer that DOES NOT INCLUDE AN ACTUAL REASON WHY the ad was flagged. They just do it to screw with you. Too much information, not enough information, I don't like what you are selling... WHY? This includes but is not limited to lewd sexual comments. The employees are disgusting pigs and if they are not employees why are they still on there? Is there any control over this? #MeToo should be all over this. It is verbal assault by a bunch of low IQ [censored]. This is not an isolated incident. This is an ongoing problem.

Someone is putting thing about us in craiglist an is not true we called cops an nothing was stolen we have a police report made an we didnt want any proble so we gave the one month notices to move know hes putting thing for ppl wont rent my room i have another tante here an he dosent have any problem with us and by the way i dont do drug cause I've been under CPS case for 1yr an 2 month an they were doing drug test on me so i dont know wat else to just report him here i hope that some could help about it cause is fauls everything his saying...

Hi there,

This is my home and it is being advertised as a vacation rental. We already had one person come and tried to get keys to our place (we have tenants there). This is a SCAM. Please help us report and take this offline:

Please read the response that I got back below - I emailed on May 2 it took them till May 7th to email me back - 5 days later. This was an old add my sister sent to me and since it took 5 days to get back to me I purchased somewhere else. Please see what they responded with to me on the 12 of May - I don't find this acceptable, it is actually quite disturbing to have an email such as this. Just thought you should now what is being done on your site.
Regards
Susanne Gear

I have been responding to multiple ads regarding fireplace insert/wood burning fireplace inserts. Very frustrating.

1. Too many of your sellers use stock photo images to purposely misrepresent the item for sale. You as my purchasing source have the obligation to control these falsehoods.

SIMPLE SOLUTION: a mandatory "check box" stating that the photo is the actual product for sale prominently located under the image.

2. Especially for building products that have an installation need, these items most likely require de-installation. Same solution from above.

The majority of items that are listed over a one week period, have one or both
Of the falsehoods calling into question, is Craigslist an honorable place to shop?

Hi
I wish to complain about a user on your service who is flagging adverts routinely even though my adverts a real and breach any of Craigslist rules to my knowledge it has now become harassment it sent an abusive message calling my girlfriend a dopey bimbo this is unnecessary and a nuisance i have spoken to several other users who have the same issue with the user JohnG he unnecessarly flags legitimate ads breaching no rule passing moral judgments i hope you stop the user from engaging in this indirect aggression towards woman i am sure Craigslist dose not support such behavior

Today we got a call from a person that was going to sign a contract to sub-lease our condo with the address of:

[protected] this is the Craigslist # id.

They are using our legitimate address and photos. We have our condo for rent for October 1st. They are advertising a sub-lease for immediate occupancy. This is a scam!

Please take this ad down immediately, and notify us that you have taken action. Our email address is [protected]@mac.com

Thank you

This guy who is harassing me to get something free (black mailing) is posting my personal info (phone number) and all around fake ad in a negative context. Can you please remove it immediately? And make it so he doesn't continue to repost the same thing every day. He's been doing it day after day and he doesn't know me personally. Everything he has posted again is not true. You can find this under the search of kitten reseller on craiglist NY in the pet section. I can't get back to the site to send you the link because I flagged it but it still isn't permanently removed and I've been getting crazy phone calls/texts because of this. He's a very menacing and all the negative response isn't right. I appreciate any help. I don't know what else to do at this point.

My name is Naomi Wallace I've been getting phone calls about a place to rent for the weekend I'm never putting thing on craigslist I can call to California different places in Texas and I live in Washington text my address is 9751 lone Star Road lot 50 677880 I don't know who did man that where I live you can't really bring out the cabins are cool it's a lifestyle resort to please find out who did it take me off the number is 9795715005Get rid of that find out who did that because I've never given anybody permission to use my name for member where I live thank you

There is a posting on craigslist showing the home at 1943 W Tremont Street for rent for $500 per month. This is a fraudulent posting. It is a scam that someone is running and it's creating many inquiries to me for something that does not exist. The post id is [protected] Please have this posting removed. It is a scam. This home is not for rent. It is listed for sale only not for rent.

I've been receiving calls and text all day about a Polaris for sale! Someone has listed my phone number, [protected]!
Please flag the Polaris ad that has my cell phone number
I keep telling people texting and calling it's the wrong number listed!
I just want my personal cell phone number taken off ad for sale!

Norma Tucker ([protected]@gmail.com, [protected], nephew's number [protected]. Posted a truck for sale on your site. We sent email stating we were interested. The price was $2000. She sent us more pictures, her nephew contacted us and said it was being sold through ebay and they were handling everything.

We received an invoice and instructions from ebay, which now we know was a scam. But we followed the instructions of the invoice and sent the requested amount with ebay gift cards. Vehicle was suppose to be delivered. Needless to say I have already report this to the internet crime complaint center. The truck is now listed in aiken sc for sale on your site. Below is the web address: https://augusta.craigslist.org/cto/d/ford-f150-lariat-supercrew-4/6510772057.html. They took all the money we had. Please stop them.

On March 13, 2018, the seller delivered a non working refrigerator and was paid $45 extra to deliver. The refrigerator does not cool. An appliance repairman said it was out of freon and someone had installed a "tap" that was a non whirlpool part. I told the seller, believed to be Jay Summers, from Lancaster, SC, to come get the refrigerator and I wanted my money back ($300). He has refused to answer my calls, return my money or come pick up the bad refrigerator. His phone number is 803 235-6640. There is another refrigerator for sale on craigslist 6507938295 from the same phone number. Also, one from Corenelius, NC that looks exactly like the bad one advertised, 6530649968. I believe this person is running a scam. Contact me at [protected]. [protected]@icould.com

I have been searching for a room or Apartment for rent. I have been running across the same person offering services, When you call they either don't return your messages or the guy tells you he's eating breakfast he will call you back, And they never call back. The point is this guys ads have been on there for months now, I believe he is putting fake pictures up there offering housing. I noticed a different apartment this time, But the same number, because my phone stored the number when I called, and a different guy answers but you never get to see the place. Or if you make an appointment they never show up.

I been receiving nasty text messages saying they got my number from craigslist. I use craigslist to search for materials I need. Ive sent emails to people selling tools or remodeling services. 90% of the time I get no response. This is annoying. Now I'm being blocked from Craigslist. Is there anyway to stop this. How r they getting my number from an email sent through your server? Most upsetting is I now can not use craigslist! Can u help? Thanks Becky

February 19. 2018 through February 26, 2018. I saw this truck on Craigslist on February 19, 2018. I first texted Alice Thompson about the truck. She emailed me back. We had emailed several times, about the truck. I'm pretty sure I got scammed. She told me she was being deported overseas for 18 months. I had to make the payments by EBay cards. I tried email to her. I haven't gotten any response to my emails. I am now out $2400 dollars.

Hi again, I will do my best to walk you through the process. As I told you in my first email, my medical team will deploy back overseas. Right now I'm in a military base (Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska). We are in the final stage of our training and I am only allowed to check my email so we have to stick to email for now. The vehicle is here with me at the base and the delivery process will be managed by me, ready to be delivered to its future new owner. The deal is handled by eBay so I don't have much to
