Bye bye Craig’s List
Another reason to avoid Craig’s:
Police Arrest 35 In Craig’s List Prostitution Ring
FT. PIERCE, Fla.—Police arrested 35 people in connection with a prostitution ring that used the popular Internet classified ad service Craig’s List to set up illegal “dates.”
The arrests were the result of a three-day undercover operation by St. Lucie County Sheriff’s that resulted in charges of soliciting, deriving income from prostitution and procuring prostitutes. Deputies posing as customers used the online service to arrange the service of prostitutes.
The prostitutes then implicated pimps. Detectives also placed ads on Craig’s List to lure prospective customers and arrested them when they responded. Craig’s List, which allows users to sell, buy or list want ads for free, has a disclaimer that the site is not to be used for illegal activities.
I was never fond on Craigslist and I never thought about using it for getting dates. Now, I will keep it even further from my online life!
