Duo Responsible For Craigslist Hoax Now Post Bail

by Baba Ganoush on April 1, 2008

Last week we posted about an Oregon man who had his house pillaged by people thanks to a fake Craigslist posting. Essentially, the phony Craigslist post said that he had to move suddenly and everything in his barn and front porch was free for the taking, including his horses. The story received a ton of coverage and became national news.

So how did these two winners come up with the whole idea? Turns out the couple had gone to the barn just days earlier to do their own looting, stealing saddles and other items. In an attempt to cover-up their own crime, they created the Craigslist posting.

We’re happy to see these two get caught, despite their clever scheme, as I’m sure no body wants to come home to their house being ransacked by a bunch of random people. Now I can get back to searching the Craigslist Missed Connections for women who didn’t have the guts to come up to me at the bars on Friday and Saturday nights.

The best part of the whole story is that the original couple stole saddles. Saddles? Really? Since when did Craigslist fraud schemes and wild west shenanigans become synonomous?
