Craigslist – Be Careful

Breitbart TV is one of my favorite hangouts these days – a regular way to get my day going. Have to admit – it’s everything I really had envisioned VideoExpose to be, but time just never allowed for that to happen. A woman, responding to a Craigslist for a Nanny led a woman to the home to ‘meet the couple,’ and was never seen again until her body was recovered from a nearby park.

While I am a firm promoter of Craigslist and have believed in them for a long time, everyone needs to remember that there are people out there who utilize the web as their own personal net – just like a spider, waiting for their prey. Parents – kids can’t go it alone until they’ve learned the ropes – and that means you should already know the ropes in order to foster proper usage of the web and understanding the difference between right and wrong.

Hindsight is always 20/20, and I feel for this poor woman – the daughter of a pastor in their local community – and her family.

Be careful.
