    My paid postings are not showing in Craigslist I do paid posting 2 to 3 times per month or more but my postings only shows in my account page I just found out I am in painting business my postings supposed to show under the title "paint" and "painter"No wonder why I did not have phone calls from potential customers at all cause public can not see my postings my postings are not ghosted nor flagged or blocked I know cause Craigslist did not send me a notification Why does Craigslist make me pay for each posting and does not show it?

    After using Craigslist for years I attempted to use this site to look for rooms for rent only to experience six months of horror. Every single person who I contacted and contacted me had propositioned me to see if I was interested in exchanging *** for reduced or free rent. Si xe I was on the streets and basically desperate I accepted the first offer of the person who did not proposition me although it was way out of my price range. It only lasted a month and back to the streets I went because yet another predator scammed me. Now a year and a half later I still have this problem. Not just propositions but scams as well. I don't appreciate walking to a house with a room for rent or an available apartment only to be scammed only to walk back home after taking public transportation empty handed. Craigslist has been a mental headache. I do not see how this site is still operating.

    FLAGGING ABUSE......For over 15 years I have used Craigslist for posting any openings I may have in my home for room rentals. Previously flagging has been minor and handled by C/L support team quickly. However, the past week has been a nightmare. What used to be beneficial for both the person looking for a residence and the poster offering a residence I have been shut out completely with every ad deleted, flagged or removed the past 5 days. Now, anyone can flag an ad without even having to disclose why they are flagging it. This is akin to turning over your business to anyone on the street to dictate who or whom can post. I have complained over and over about this and even asked if C/L can charge for the listing in order to prevent this to no avail.

    First time trying to find a home for a puppy. Not a breeder and not selling. Rehoming with a small fee which is allowed. People keep flagging my post and then harass me via email through craigslist site. I flagged these messages and posted a new ad with all the information now stating, free to a good home and I'm waiting for this ad to be flagged as well. I tried contacting support with no response for over a week. Clearly this company doesn't care about anyone using the site. If I was a prostitute I'm sure I'd have better luck on the site.

    Craigslist used to a good idea and it used to be an honest bussiness model. I agree with other reviews that it it has become some kind of money laundering / political / hacking operation. I recently flagged a few postings that were pretending to give high-end furniture for free. The ads included a personal email and asked people to respond there. The ads with the same email where posted in **, ** and ***************** area. Wouldn't you know it, the next day some of my postings (selling my used furniture) were flagged and removed. When I refreshed them, a few minutes later the same thing happened. This is just the latest instance of strange events from Craiglists. My experience is that there is a lot fraud with people from foreign countries asking for cell phone numbers. Asking to text. Somebody, somewhere must have incredibly extensive database of ordinary **************** I would say that the ************** is complicit in this operation. The question arises whether ****************** founded the Craigslist with that intention in mind or whether Cragislist has been highjacked. I am thinking about filing a police report.

    While my attempts to suit the establishment go unrewarded the ********** Newspaper, and Craigslist spotlight the Headlines; Two ****'s for Cyberstalking, Two ****'s for Willful Misconduct. Personal injury run's $50K ?How would I explain irresponsibly; first off is the inability to reason, it's incomprehensible socially or otherwise. Efficiency; procedure mandates or rather dictates confidentiality! Some time ago I looked at boats within my price range on Craigslist? I found a ski boat for sale at ************ and that's the connection to the leak and cyberstalking ****.************** Rivers and Streams off grid living;Townships Lots Acres Patented Lands and Unpatented mining claims.Invest in the future!

    -10 stars. This place is either a money laundering operation or a government spying opp. They have a system that lets anyone either pay someone per ad to flag legitimate ads or if your cheep you can buy your own software and do it yourself. You would think with the easy availability of these scenarios they would stop flagging all together, but no. What kind of B.S. site is this. I had a place to sell my items until you came along.

    Craigslist has no customer service. If you post something for sale anyone can flag it or Craigslist can ,for illegitimate reasons and there's nothing you can do. I tried to post a lawnmower for sale and they deemed it "inappropriate ". A lawnmower? How? I belive them to be engaged in criminal anti-trust practices ,only allowing certain people to sell.

    Craigslist allows pro-***** posts in their ************* section of their website, yet discriminates against anti-***** posts and immediately removes them. The employee in charge of approving posts personally discriminates against anyone posting about ******* election lies and providing the truth.

    This website is a waste of people's time and promotion of it. I tried to look for different searchings and found listings with joking, run a rounds and beating around the **** or plain ads with no specifics just brief details and contact info. What a joke.
