    Mad Mama on Craigs List

    Mother writes: (I'm paraphrasing 'cause ad was deleted)....To the lady who posted the ad for a free computer for anyone under 18..you were not very truthful when you told them to write and tell you why they should have it and when you called and told my son that he won he was all excited....then we get there and find two old computers, an old monitor and a box of chords. If you wanted someone to pick up your trash you should have just said so !!

    So....I e-mail the irate mother and tell her I will pay her son for all that "trash". She called and said I could have it for free. My first CL experience. I don't live close to a city so it hasn't been worth it 'til now.

    Sadly there are people all over CL like that....Posting ads with some kind of string attached to them....I came across one for a car that the owner was asking for the best nude pic and he would sell it for half of what he had listed. Just another perv looking for a free peep show.....I hope he got a bunch of pics men!
