Craiglist is the Internet's classifieds leader. The site gets about 30 million new classifieds each month. With that many listings you are bound to get a few scams. This does happen frequently on Craigslist with that huge volume of listings. The company relies on the community to remove bad listings and they don't catch them all. Craigslist also posts a faq about how to watch out for scams. CBS explains why it is buyer beware on Craigslist and why some people want the company to do more to stop scams.
