Report to Craigslist? HAHA! You might as well put a note in a bottle and throw it in the ocean. Craigslist doesn't have a team of people reviewing complaints or fraudulent posts which is why Craigslist is such a mess.

The best solution is to add a watermark to your photos. That will deter the fraudsters from stealing your photos and creating fake ads. Do this for every advertisement because they will steal pictures from Zillow or Trulia and create fake Craigslist ads, also.

I started watermarking my photos years ago and haven't had a single fake ad since.
