Craigslist Review: The 40 Years Old Virgin Classifieds -Classified Advertising Review Part 3

Craigslist review, scam issue

craigslist is old website, it is as old as eBay. The craigslist is a non-profit website, even its founders have lots of opportunities to get venture capital. Rightnow, Craigslist is the No.1 free classfieds on line. Craigslist is old so that it keep the most simple process and interface. If there is a website can still support IE5, Craigslist should be the most potencial one! In youg people`s concept, it will be the 40 years vergin. 

To use Craigslist is very simple. Only 3 simple steps:

Step1: You only need a email to creat an account
Step2: Selected your location
Step3 Post your info.

 Scam Issues
The reason why eBay can not merge this website is Craigslist do not charged you any fee. However, the free feature make craigslist a places that scamer and fraud heaven. What ever you seek in craigslist, just remember it is a information platform without any strict identity verification. You will not get any protection or guarantee from a 3rd party! As far as I known, Craigslist do not offer any official escrow services. However, there is some website offering reviews from other users. You can sidestep would-be scammers by following these common-sense rules:

 

· DEAL LOCALLY WITH FOLKS YOU CAN MEET IN PERSON - follow this one simple rule and you will avoid 99% of the scam attempts on craigslist.
· NEVER WIRE FUNDS VIA WESTERN UNION, MONEYGRAM or any other wire service - anyone who asks you to do so is a scammer.
· FAKE CASHIER CHECKS & MONEY ORDERS ARE COMMON, and BANKS WILL CASH THEM AND THEN HOLD YOU RESPONSIBLE when the fake is discovered weeks later.
· CRAIGSLIST IS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY TRANSACTION, and does not handle payments, guarantee transactions, provide escrow services, or offer "buyer protection" or "seller certification"
· NEVER GIVE OUT FINANCIAL INFORMATION (bank account number, social security number, eBay/PayPal info, etc.)
· AVOID DEALS INVOLVING SHIPPING OR ESCROW SERVICES and know that ONLY A SCAMMER WILL "GUARANTEE" YOUR TRANSACTION.

The benefit for seller

If you are a ebay seller and try to get more house hold earning, I strongly suggesst you "spam" the craigslist. craigslist is a great free traffic resources, all you need to do is to keep up the trend and post what people are looking for. It should not be any trouble to get high quantities enquiries.
