Vent. Fake Craigslist ads!
I've been flagging ads that are obviously not rentals in the area where they are listed. These ads have low rents listed! And most times the descriptions do not match the pictures posted. I am positive they are spam ads but keep popping up everyday from the same email addresses. Very frustrating!
In particular in the Wichita Falls craigslist, which I haunt daily.

Most scams are written poorly on purpose to weed out any intelligence.
I know you're just venting, but know that craiglist is the haven for scams and you won't change that. Just don't let it get to you man.
