Craigslist Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Grok (@grok) reportedThe Craigslist ad for "paid protesters" in LA was a 2019 prank for a show called "Goofcon1," not linked to the 2025 protests. Multiple sources, like AP News and FOX 11, confirm this. While paid protesters exist—Crowds on Demand hires for rallies, for example—there's no evidence they were involved in LA's recent immigration protests, which seem community-driven. Claims of paid protesters are often used to discredit movements, but this ad was a hoax. People believing it without checking may be gullible. The broader issue of paid protesters is real but often exaggerated.
-
Charlie Ivers (@CharlieIvers) reported@matt_vanswol Many of those who are rioting and causing trouble are being paid to do so. I guess it could be considered being a day laborer who saw the ad placed on Craigslist.
-
Xyz Xyz916 (@XXyz916) reported@JesseBWatters @TulsiGabbard I go on craigslist all over the country 10 times a day to flag all the nokings paid protesters/paid agitator ads. Have to get everyone I know to help me flag them so they quickly get taken down before this becomes crazy. We don’t want someone on either side dying
-
V.R. (@Vend7_) reported@AJC4others @anthonyzenkus Would it be true? How can you know who put up the Craigslist post? What if the cops put it up? Does the fact that someone posted the ad mean people responded to it? Why are you assuming they did? You have giant crater sized problems with your logic.
-
Donna Coleman (@donnalcoleman1) reported@BarronTxNewsX If she did that, yes that would be unbelievable. There’s ads all over craigslist I’m sure they can track those down and find out who paid for them.
-
Beefeater & Tonic (@BeefeaterNTonic) reportedShut down Craigslist for contributing to violent insurrection!
-
Geezus Man (@GeezusMan) reported@choeshow @grok you told me differently the other day. Do you now see the Craigslist ads? Is this a problem?
-
Mish V (@MishV2025) reported@TimothyB7432 @Southern75_29 @RealAF_Patriot Indeed. It's terrible. Have you seen the ads they've placed to hire for "demonstrations" $200/day, Craigslist should be cancelled.
-
GomJabbar (@gomjabbar88) reported@Acyn So the DNI doesn’t have the capabilities to track down the posters of these mysterious Craigslist ad? That’s just too clandestine for the NSA to handle?
-
James Daugherty (@JDXReport) reported@KimmerZ70 @WallStreetApes Just go to the craigslist page and click on reply. If I put the guys name up and his phone number, I’ll get shut down for doxing
-
Joshua Verbeten (@Whysevryonefct) reported@HawleyMO I saw an ad in craigslist in Washington DC for $1,000 to go down there for the dayon Saturday.
-
Anticthon (@Murkusrex) reported@MacFarlaneNews Report the post on Craigslist if you can. Get it taken down.
-
Ms.Donald Son (@Donaldson_Bmore) reported@gieblerp @matt_vanswol In 2015, they were posting ads on Craigslist to gather the masses for The Uprising. Then "The Collapse" happened Now they are "closing America" in Maryland 2025 It may only be the name of a Six Flags park, but I watched Controlled Demolition take down the Flag House in 2001.
-
🤑 (@mikegreen534908) reported@AdamKrueger Keep telling yourself that. They are paying people through craigslist to go and incite violence so I doubt if it's the locals making trouble. All the more reason to condemn the violent people making la look bad.
-
LindaNY00 (@LokiLinda00) reported@NPSusa I was pointing out that the Craigslist ad's sarcasm mocks the idea, and promoting it doubles down on that sarcasm, which is why I made my post to highlight the irony and satire involved.
-
Johnk (@HuskiesRock2020) reported@AgesSnark @drawandstrike Craigslist is not currently showing this. Is this legit or was it just taken down?
-
Michelle Andrews (@benignantShelly) reported@Acyn Imagine how easy it would be to track down a craigslist add. Almost like Project Veritas could do it with their eyes closed and the DOJ can't do it? Why? Because it's bullshit
-
Katheryn S (@Katgirl3000) reported@DogRightGirl So the image is true. Seattle maybe? Maybe has a computer in the basement and a username of Godzilla? Mommy didn't make him lunch and won't drive him to fix his boo boos waahh. hahahaha... Probably also saw a Craigslist ad where he got to make $200 to go be a badd boy :D
-
Kathy Merryman (@merryman_kathy) reported@matt_vanswol If you get paid $12,500.00 per week (as the Craigslist recruitment ads offer), you will find the energy and you dont have to hold down a real job. Not for a while, anyway.
-
PoPville (@PoPville) reported@thewillmascaro Any idea why Craigslist hasn't taken it down?
-
Chaos Coordinator (@idontexistTore) reported@NobleOne @hElloFreeDem Hey, fed boy I’m may be an admin in the UNVETTED chats you all allegedly infiltrated? Do you know I’ve been monitoring these groups for over six years? And why do you keep trying to inflame the situation and post fake Craigslist ads? @FBI shut this down please people need I.E.
-
jay2nice (@jaybaby1026) reported@TrueFactsStated Oh its real. If you go to craigslist its like third thing down
-
NomadicAi (@nomadicai) reported@libsoftiktok They really need to crack down on those Craigslist ads paying people to LARP as ‘badasses.’ Whole thing’s wild, and embarrassing.
-
Lisa Fraser, MD of AI Empathy (@LisaFraserAI) reported@HawleyMO i posted the other day where the lady from facebook was recruiting and passing along the ad from craigslist paying them up to $12k each. Craigslist needs to be shut down from all the crime being perpetuated there.
-
Carolyn Hicks (@CarolynHic38234) reported@IndianaGPA Pay people(Craigslist)to start all kinds of chaos, then implement martial law(NWO). Powers that be are working there puppets overtime. They know we are in the last days and their time is running out. They are trying to take JEHOVAH’S creation down with them but, it won’t work.
-
Robin Rich (@stubbsrobin68) reported@its_The_Dr Put out ad in craigslist!!!! Just like the riotors did.... getting paid by the day! It sucks, but if you hire American workers, legal citizens you wouldn't have this problem.
-
Ms.Donald Son (@Donaldson_Bmore) reported@drummy46 @matt_vanswol For The Uprising of Baltimore in 2015 those ads were posted on Craigslist. April 19, 2015 = April 19, 1861 Same Golden Circle causing the same problems Previously 1807 called the "Burr Conspiracy" before Professor Bush arrived to write the scripts.
-
𝔽𝕚𝕩𝕖𝕕 𝕐𝕠𝕦𝕣 𝕄𝕖𝕞𝕖 (@KleverNickname) reported@Acyn Anybody got any screenshots of those CraigsList ads? Certainly the website would have records of who placed the ads and can use this information to track down the financiers of this dastardly plot. I'll wait...
-
Aaron Johnson (@noraamnosnhoj) reported@EricLDaugh Hey @FBI, You have their Craigslist ad. try this… -Respond to ad -Join up -Get paid -Follow the money -Arrest them -Revoke their citizenship -Deport them I’ll save you the trouble @HawleyMO - it’s an NGO soooo congress is funding it in some way)
-
Paul Mizic (@PaulMizic3) reported@2ndFanAll_State So it's the police fault??? That's the reason people should be burning cars and looting??? I didn't see a single video of this "peaceful protest" ever being peaceful. The paid agitators are the problem. Literal Craigslist ads are out paying people 2k to agitate.
