PLAGIARISM OF ALL OF MY PAID CRAIGSLIST ADS

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
PLAGIARISM OF ALL OF MY PAID CRAIGSLIST ADS

Hello and good morning Craigslist staff,

I have been spending over $1400 per year to paid C.L. advertising now for over 10 years now and appreciate the fact that I have the C.L.

vehicle to sell and deliver my 60 year old field grown olive trees.

As a matter of fact it is very nice being able to pay for an ad and have it stay up rather than try to

post free ads and have to deal with all of my competition in the olive tree world flagging ALL of my ads.

In the past year there has been a new olive tree sales thief [a guy that is a total rip off] posting his free ads online and he is undercutting the olive tree industry and I have received multiple reports from

olive trees clients who have chosen to do business with this guy Hector Diaz, who has no California State Contractors license, does not pay for insurance or bonding, had no website, hands out hand written invoices, takes their money and rips them off.

Most recently this guy has stolen all of my promotional olive tree photos, and yesterday he decided to steal all of my written description's of my olive tree products word-for-word and basically has stolen my entire C.L Ad's photos, vocabulary and all.

TOTAL PLAGERISM

It is not fair that I pay over $120 per month for advertising over $1400 a year, to have this scab rip off

easily be able to steal all of my families years long hard work and use it to sell his olive trees>

Please help me out here, I would greatly appreciate it, this guy for everyone's sake needs to be banned from C.L. for life...

Dog taken down under legitimate description.

Craigslist - Dog taken down under legitimate description.
Craigslist - Dog taken down under legitimate description. - Image 2

Boycott Craigslist. Someone posted a dog for adoption under legitimate circumstances and I want that *** dog.

Either your *** company puts back up that listing, or I will have a class action lawsuit filed for discrimination that will destroy Craigslist. Craigslist supports sexual exploitation, prostitution, trafficking of people and drugs, and does not require 1099s. You are either *** or I will see you in court representing tens of thousands of disgusted Craigslist ex-consumer/ex sellers. I promise you that I will shut Craigslist down, as well as cost you millions in lost customers and legal fees.

I hope the entirety of your company suffers from these decisions. These are facts. They are not harassment.

Maybe try taking accountability rather than using PITA algorithms. Such a joke.

Pros:

Ripped Off & Injured

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

This guy started out okay with lots of jokes. He's slow and he admits it.

He doesn't seem very competent. He makes reference to his brother teaching him. Chuck is not very reliable or organized. He doesn't exercise common business etiquette.

He never gives a SPECIFIC time that he will come. I changed my work schedule to accommodate when he said he would come. He kept changing the time then didn't come at all.

Worst of all, he hung a wall cabinet for me. He and his partner Maurice (I believe) hung it crooked.

Only days later, it fell fron the wall injuring me. I called him out on this. He then promised many times that he would come, changing often. Then as I pressed him, he asked that I no longer call him.

He doesn't answer his phone. He had bad diabetes and it affects his foot and movement/abilities. But most of all, he is slow, incompetent, and 'scrambled eggs' as far as organization and business savvy. Avoid CHUCK HANDYMAN SERVICES AT ALL COST!

I have a wall full of holes, a broken cabinet, and injury.

Now I must hire a real professional that's insured and certified. I will most likely see Chuck next in court.

Disappointed and Let Down - Denied Access to Craigslist

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Hello,

I hope this message finds you well, although I must admit that my current state of frustration and disappointment has led me to question the efficiency and user-friendliness of your platform. As a disgruntled elderly lady, I am writing to express my utter dismay at the obstacles I have encountered while attempting to access Craigslist.

In an age where technology is supposed to simplify our lives, your website seems to have missed the memo on inclusivity and user support.

I have spent countless hours trying to navigate through your convoluted system, only to be met with roadblocks at every turn. It is disheartening to see how little consideration has been given to individuals like myself who may not be as tech-savvy as the younger generation.

I find it utterly infuriating that I am denied access to a platform that supposedly promotes community engagement and the exchange of goods and services. It appears that your website discriminates against those who may not be adept at deciphering complex online interfaces. Is it too much to ask for a user-friendly design that accommodates people of all ages and technological backgrounds?

I implore you to reconsider your approach to user accessibility and support.

It is not only frustrating but also deeply unfair to alienate a portion of the population simply because they do not conform to the stereotypical image of an internet-savvy user. Your website should be a tool for bringing people together, not a source of frustration and exclusion.

I demand that you take immediate action to rectify this situation and make Craigslist more accessible to individuals like myself.

It is high time you prioritize the needs of your diverse user base and implement changes that ensure everyone can benefit from the services your platform offers.

I await a prompt and satisfactory resolution to this matter. Rest assured, I will not rest until the necessary adjustments are made to grant me and others like me the access we deserve.

Sincerely,

Maura H.

One, there is nothing wrong with Craigslist’s website. You just need patience or someone to assist you.

Two, don’t write you are being denied access. You not being able to navigate the site isn’t denying you access. Three, don’t write that this is discrimination against those lacking tech know-how. You know very well, or should know, lack of technical ability is not a protected class where using the term discrimination is appropriate.

It is disgusting to use the word discrimination when others really are experiencing it. It is also wrong to blame the website and say you are being denied access when you are not.

Original review Dec 26, 2023

To whom it may concern. I'm 66 live in a mobile home paid $750.

For him to paint the front of my home. He, said his work was guaranteed. I have health issue. I saw the finished job and told him that i saw places that looked like peeling..

He informed that once dried it would seal. 2 days later checked his work and it was really bad. Called him said he would come back and fix.. never showed, and now i cant reach him by call or txt.

A week later the whole paint job is peeling. This guy took advantage of me being sick, and ripped me off.His name is Sal 480-271-****. His POSTING ID: 769977****. I need help.

He is posting a misleading add . wonder how many people has he ripped off. I want to file a small claim claim. But need more info on this crook..

I have pictures of before, after, and now current.

Please advise what i can do to recover money, Craigslist needs too remove his add. Thank you.

Craigslist - My ads keep getting flagged
Every time I post an ad my ads keep getting flagged they are within your guidelines and I don't know how to stop it. You need to have some way of finding out who these individuals are and blocking them from doing anything on your website that *** the problem once you fix that problem then maybe people will come back and start using craigslist again.

User's recommendation: If you have the patience you can keep posting your ad and of course these people and these individuals will continue to do their crap but you can be persistent and maybe this can stop but I doubt it use Facebook make your announcements on Facebook or Twitter or some other website that a lot of individuals use
