‘Online’ prostitute arrested in Port Huron:

A ‘concerned citizen’ in Port Huron, Michigan tipped off police to a 19-year-old hooker on craigslist.

Police set up a meeting at a local motel and arrested her.

At least 3 people sign up for bogus job posting on Craigslist:

3 people in Michigan have been taken by a job scam. They had provided money and personal information so the ‘employer’ could do a background search. I don’t know about you but I’ve never applied for a job where I had to give the employer money for any reason.

The people were told to meet with the employer in Flint but when they showed up no one knew what they were talking about.

Which just goes to show that even the job postings on craigslist, which are paid postings, are suspect.

Internet Scam Uses Fallen Soldier’s Name:

Some unscrupulous scammer is posting an ad on craigslist purporting to sell a car that belonged to fallen soldier from Michigan, Byron Fouty.

The ad is for a BMW M6 going for $2,800. According to the article the Bluebook value is $80K. The ad claims to be from Byron Fouty’s father and it asks to wire the money to a fake escrow company.

Byron Fouty’s stepfather says that Byron never even owned a car.

I hope karma finds the assclown that posted this ad and punches him right in the face.
