Craigslist has no system to stop bullying

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

I have a malicious tenant who was asked to leave because of violations. They did leave but they constantly flag my posts on craigslist and CL will not do anything about it.

Can't get passed map, for last 4 Years. Doesn't allow looking at CONTENT OF AN AD. TAKES YOU TO A MAP OF 15 THINGS, AND WANTS YOU TO GUESS!!!

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

What makes every year, last 4, you put up a map at the beginning of the season that comes up if you click on an ad. You can't see contents anymore.

Just a map to guess where the ad is.

Went to thousands in the last 10 years. When your map comes up again, like no, I stop using Craigslist!!!

Fraud

Craigslist - Fraud
Contains 1 confidential file for company representatives

I was scammed out of money due to a fake posting. I sent a deposit via Zelle and have received no response since.

They kept asking for more money. They asked me to call my bank or send Apple Pay to deliver my product.

Post keep getting taken down

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

I have been trying to post a rehoming ad for 2 weeks, and Craigslist keeps taking it down. I even copied and pasted another post that has been there for hours, word for word, and how come only mine gets taken down and not theirs? I don't think that's fair.

Preferred solution: Would like my post not to get taken down

User's recommendation: Just post somewhere else

Sold a sick puppy

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

I was sold a puppy off Craigslist that had parvo, and now the puppy is in the hospital fighting for his life. It's ridiculous that I cannot speak to somebody at Craigslist to get to the bottom of this.

No solution

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

I keep getting flagged for posting free puppies. I asked the flagger to stop in one of my posts.

I still get flagged within 30 minutes. Craigslist used to be a good site, but they want to charge you for a post to sell something or post a job.

I won't use the website anymore. Waste of time.

Blocked posting want to resolve

Updated by user Jun 10, 2025

Well i really dont know what to ay because my issiue was not fix

Original review May 26, 2025

I've been posting on Craigslist for a while with my massage therapy business for months and months now. I've never had a problem.

One day, I got blocked, and my post got taken down. For what reasons I'm not sure of. I want to hopefully resolve this so I can restart reposting again under your guidelines, of course. Please contact me and let me know something as soon as possible.

If we can resolve this, please, because I do apologize for whatever I've done.

It wasn't intentional or meaning to be problematic. I do run a civilized, legit work.
