Craigslist taught a generation to be suspicious of everything. We'd rather teach the board to be worthy of trust — and tell you exactly where the traps are.
Deals you can drive to. “I'm overseas but my shipper will…” is always a scam.
Anyone who asks is not selling anything. Cash, in person, item in hand.
Overpayment checks bounce after your money is gone. Every time.
Many police stations and libraries offer safe-trade spots — use them for vehicles and high-value items.
See the title, match the VIN, sign where a notary can watch.
Posters present a verified-profile card from their shared account. It's a signal, not a guarantee — rules 1–5 still apply.
• Scam-shield warnings pinned on the risky sections (vehicles, jobs, rentals-style posts).
• Reports unpin a listing fast; repeat offenders lose the account — one shared account across the family, so a ban means something.
• No paid “featured” fog: nobody buys their way above your neighbor.
• Exact home addresses are never required to post; meetup spots are the poster's choice.
