Craigslist has exploded in popularity over the last few years. On Craigslist.com you can find a job, or look for a job, you can sell that old china cabinet your mother gave you that you always hated, buy a perfect crib for the baby you’re expecting or even give away the Franklin Stove that came with your house. However, the popularity of Craigslist has also made it home to many people seeking to take advantage, and so you have to watch carefully for frauds.

The 419 fraud has become one of the most active ones used during the past few years. With the worldwide use of the Internet it has become easy for fraudulent people to reach hundreds of thousands of would-be “marks” through their e-mail accounts. This scheme requires the receiver to advance money in the hope of receiving a larger gain.
