    @daffodil_artist @idontexistTore Recently listening to an early June show, 2022 (6/3), & Tore ****** read CRAIGSLIST ads in the 'missed connections' section .... DAMN Tore, always right down to the teeny, tiny details - 3 years ago, those sounded like contractor comms/gigs too.

  • DoyleTitlow1 doyleT.aka:Velcrobutt #MAGA #fightfightfight (@DoyleTitlow1) reported

    @matt_vanswol The ones hiding their face are the paid protestors from the Craigslist ad and the trouble-makers.

  • mollywidstrom deep salt water (@mollywidstrom) reported

    i've been trawling craigslist for cats lately lmao. three is probably too many and that leads down the slippery slope to four and we don't need to go there BUT who knows

  • narrtrek Narr Trek (@narrtrek) reported

    @AntiLeftMemes Mine has come down. My E0 gas is cheaper. I use the mower, pruner, electric **** whacker, that I already have. I could set her up with an illegal yard guy replacement kit for about $300, less if I use Craigslist.

  • 21CentBetsyRoss V (@21CentBetsyRoss) reported

    @matt_vanswol @frost47015 Craigslist took down a listing for LA area offering $6500-$12500/week for "badasses" who would be paid even if they were just on standby. There's your answer. Many of these ppl may be out-of-work welfare recipients...but the leaders are well paid agitators w/ military experience!

  • trishtaylor Trish Taylor (@trishtaylor) reported

    @monicalimco FB marketplace prob has a deluge - so many don't use craigslist anymore because of the issue with scammers though FB is full of them now too. Also, maybe NextDoor.

  • rohindhar Rohin Dhar (@rohindhar) reported

    @BayAreaREMatt True, but all startup marketplaces face that problem and eventually one of them figures it out! In this case none appear to have yet. Even FB and Craigslist FSBO with large amounts of exposure don't seem to do the trick

  • Audacity2Speak Alicia (@Audacity2Speak) reported

    @jenniferforrep managed care has terrible care coordination when i was an mco plan and it took 17 months to contract established Medicaid provider i was told to look for caregivers on Craigslist it ended in abusive situation why would you want to put anyone with IDD thru that?

  • Dave__Handy Dave Handy (@Dave__Handy) reported

    Do not rely on @CashApp to refund your money if a scammer gets you! My gf sent a craigslist scammer $30 for a down payment for apartment cleaning - they say she needs the scammer to approve the refund, & there's nothing else they can do. They're knowingly facilitating fraud!

  • CcAkachi Akachukwu (@CcAkachi) reported

    CoinMixing is Craigslist. CoinJoin is home-cooked. One’s risky and fast. The other’s slow but solid.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    I can't directly find customers, but I can suggest ways to sell your Hisense refrigerator. List it on platforms like Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace with details like model, condition (new, as shown), and price ($1,000-$2,000 based on similar models). Highlight features like the water dispenser and no frost technology. Hisense is reliable, though some units may have cooling or ice maker issues, usually fixable. Ensure transparency with buyers about the model and condition to build trust. Check local listings for competitive pricing.

  • sc23cc Jay Lightning-NAS, Everybody Was Kung Fu Fishing. (@sc23cc) reported

    @al_requiem Several people around here doing just that, get them running post on Craigslist for a decent markup. Mechanic in a bottle, or draining cleaning carb and Fresh Gas fix half the problems.

  • Discountess_ The DisCountess (@Discountess_) reported

    I posted my Bonnaroo tickets on Craigslist, this guy said he’d definitely buy them. Then he was like could you help me by posting 2 tickets to some other festival bc he had trouble posting them. Now I’m regretting this I feel like he’s gonna scam me somehow now

  • ImMrNoName Brad ❤️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 (@ImMrNoName) reported

    @krisalteyespy I got rid of a table once, no issues I tried to sell a used iPhone and it kept flagging the item as a fake I know Craigslist can have a lot of fraud, but I’ve been pretty successfully sellin and buying

  • ttunlehs Ŕɛŧïŕɛð ïɲfłůẹɲčɛŕ (@ttunlehs) reported

    The next step is (redacted) on Craigslist with some trash bags and (redacted) while she gargles aquarium water in a (redacted). Then on the following Saturday we (redact) her toenail cleaner with some (redacted) and flush her (redacted) down the (redcated)... And if she still doesn't stop, we (redact) her to China

  • TweetsandMoore ole matt (@TweetsandMoore) reported

    @SteveMerkle9 Ohh god I would be moved down to Craigslist

  • MHifihifi MrHifihifi (@MHifihifi) reported

    Am I the only one who has had beyond terrible experiences hiring temporary people on Craigslist? There is a reason why these people are not holding regular jobs: No One Wants to hire them! Most of these people I've ehired are not responsible, undependable and just a headaches to deal with #Craigslist

  • LatishaSnider12 Tish Snider (@LatishaSnider12) reported

    @DHSgov any and all advertisements on Craigslist and other places need to be found, shut down and creators prosecuted also. They're searching for and paying people any way they can to disrupt and riot.

  • KAduckworth Duck 4 Cover (@KAduckworth) reported

    These are mostly paid protestors. This time they advertised in Craigslist for “construction workers” @POTUS is either going to use this moment in time, to go after the globalists, who are running the shadow government, or this violence and false rhetoric from state officials is going to spread like a malignant cancer, to every other state in the country. This is their game plan. The media was briefed to play down the violence, and drip feed the “illegal immigrants are not criminals” rhetoric. It’s time to Bring in the Marines, and take back the country.

  • b_winzer Ben Winzer (@b_winzer) reported

    Every single second the site loads slow That potential client just mentally closes the tab You think they’re impressed. They’re just annoyed. They’re opening another website that looks like Craigslist but actually loads in under a second

    @Ike_Saul I dunno, I have a Craigslist Aeron stool and it’s come through for me in huge ways when I’ve had back issues

  • kisumiri 🚗Kat🚗 (@kisumiri) reported

    I think I want to buy a cheap old car on marketplace or craigslist or something, fix it up, and turn it into a crazy cyberpunk-style tuner

  • pgswagamilli Reymond Brandt (@pgswagamilli) reported

    @ChadHogons @MissBNasty It's literally why they shut down Craigslist and ******** lol

  • JustAnotherWASP comrade WASP (@JustAnotherWASP) reported from South San Francisco, California

    @RussellVarriale @FitFounder Someone has a well funded start up… aka didn’t scrounge Craigslist for a broken one to try and fix (and fail)

  • JRand1685 Chief_JR (@JRand1685) reported

    @KristinaLee1964 @w_terrence I saw the Craigslist ad you are talking about which was offered 1k for rioting "services." Paid activists, will never be an army. They will run at the first sight of trouble and are easily defeated by a large, overwhelming force. They'd rather loot than fight.

  • kittysredscare # kitty ⚔️ (@kittysredscare) reported

    I’m going to make an ad on craigslist to find someone who wants to be chased through Golden Gate park with a knife for half an hour before I catch them and pin them down to the ground
