Craigslist "Your account has been suspended"  Top



  • After posting an item for sale I received the following email from Dyerrp Brianfn (lensteven7@gmail.com)

    This is a very obvious scam and I like to bait the bast&$%&, so I wasn't surprised when, after responding "yes" I received this email:

    Please click on the following link:

    This link leads you to a bogus Craigslist item simply entitled "Account." The whole page is a clickable .jpg which states that your Craigslist account has been put on hold: clicking anything leads you to a page where you are prompted to enter your login information.

    Craigslist hasn't done ANYTHING about this page even though I have contacted them several times.

    BEWARE!!

  • CL has surely seen better days (now the butt of jokes). I recall all the scams starting the middle of 2008. I stopped applying to jobs, just post a resume every once and a while. Just got a temp assignment through CL, I think it was all a matter of timing.

    Don't expect CL to do a thing, they're not about to lose all that money.
