Craigslist is an excellent tool. We have bought and sold on it for a long time. However, any buyer or seller must be careful!

So often we hear of criminals scamming poor unsuspecting people out of their hard-earned money. It is against the law, and these people get prosecuted if caught – as they should. Unfortunately, this happens less often than we might think.
