Just go to your account, dredge up an old listing, and edit to your heart’s content.

It will go to the top of the list.

Google has an interest in Craigslist. This is a DATA Harvesting method on Google & Craiglists partnership. Essentially for personal data. By giving CL your cell/phone number you automatically link your email data and your browser environmental variables, Internet Protocol (IP) address to googlesyndication, google maps and so forth. In other words Google would know every website, phone call you make via super cookies and LSO’s. Giving your phone number to make a post is tremendous invasion of privacy. I wouldn’t post to Craigslist by giving out your phone number. That’s like walking into a store and having them ask for your “phone number” to shop.

My method:

1. Go to a pay phone with a cellular.

2. Use the pay phone to call the cellular (fifty cents).

3. When the cell rings, note the incoming number. This is the number for the pay phone. Hang up the cell without answering and then hang up the pay phone. The pay phone will give your fifty cents back.

4. Either whip out your laptop or, if not feasible or no wireless, call a friend on the cell, and have them enter the pay phone number in the Craigslist phone verification.

5. Some pay phones don’t make a regular ring when called, so listen for a more subtle sound like a click and then answer. The payphone will tell you your verification.

6. Enter verification on Craigslist.

Perhaps they would be wiser to employ the services of an entity that is empowered with a lot more information to conduct skip tracing and personal background information. It can be done, but there is only so much they can do to research the background history of their users.

What a joke…their “anti-spam” policy isn’t working…the site is filled with spam and fake ads. Probably the majority of their help-wanted ads are fake (e.g., pay a fee to get on a list to take surveys). It’s difficult to take the site seriously at this point.

Funny, I wanted to sign up for their service (reducefraud.com), but their demo wouldn’t work and their contact form wouldn’t work either because… I have Vonage!? So I called their domain registration contact number and left a message. Are there other services besides them?

If they are doing something as detailed as checking the carrier, why not (instead of alienating 14 million subscribers), offer SMS validation, take a recorded voice sample, or offer the subscriber a faxable form? There are so many easy alternatives than a black-out approach. Cory Andrews “throwing the baby out” comment is dead on. Great article by the way.
