There are many lessons in this sad story. One of them is stay away from anything having to do with Craigslist.

Nonsense. CL is no different than classified ads anywhere. I've done dozens of transactions with nary a problem. Just use common sense. Like not meeting anyone named "Tyshaune" and "Tyron".

That statement seems reasonable. But in my neck of the woods, there have been quite a few CL-related robberies recently. Quite a few. I don't recall anything like that going on back in the old days of newspaper classified ads.

I might be wrong (I often am), but my working theory is that a certain element sees CL in particular as a hunting ground.
