Some guy tried to scam me on Craigslist. Sell me a car using a bogus escrow company. You know the scam. Saw the scam immedietly, didn’t lose anything, but you’d think someone would want to put the guy in jail.
Local police aren’t interested. FTC apparently doesn’t even bother calling back on crimes less that 50K? Is this the perfect crime or is there ANYONE out there who wants to shut these scam artists down?

I plan to purchase a used car. Craigslist provided that list. I was interested in a couple of them so I sent out an email to them. Two responded, however, one car is in Canada and the other one is in UK. One uses the www.e-bbb.org as her intermediary escrow and the other one uses the Square Trade. I searched “Square Trade” and found out there were scams linked to it. Now I’m beginning to think these used car sales through craigslist.com are just plain hoax to extract money from unsuspected citizens.
