- l4stgunslinger, on 07/22/2008, -0/+11Holy *****. I was looking at an ad on Craigslist a couple of weeks ago with the same car, being sold at the same price. Only difference is, the person was "the mother" of a fallen Airforce P.J.
Its really sickening, - shaXian, on 07/22/2008, -0/+12Right up there with those who claimed they lost loved ones in the 9/11 tower attacks. asshats.

- Omnipotent123, on 07/22/2008, -0/+8I don't see how anyone could scam like that. It's bad enough with people dying, but worse to have their memory used to make money under false pretenses.
- MarkusX, on 07/22/2008, -0/+10This is so low, I have no words for it.
You don't need to be an American patriot to feel sick about this, this is just so disrespectful for anybody - even professional scammers. - ileftfark, on 07/22/2008, -0/+7If people would use some common sense and weren't so greedy ($2,800 for an $80,000 car?), lowlifes like this would cease to 'make a living'.

- AmyVernon, on 07/23/2008, -0/+6this is really awful. i hate people sometimes.
- kavutu, on 07/23/2008, -0/+6Thats very dispicable.
- hollywoodphony, on 07/23/2008, -0/+5Obviously, you've got to be sub-human to run a scam like that, but you also have to wonder about the kind of person who would fall for something like that.

- gossipmonkey, on 07/27/2008, -0/+1I saw a craigslist scam shortly after 9/11 ... someone claiming to be a victim and in need of money/stuff... it made me ill. I reported it and Craig himself emailed me back saying thanks!
