Today's Public Service announcement

[CNSBA2]

Is brought to you by the local Sheriffs Dept, and the Letter S for Ripoff,

Just a heads up, Im positive i dont have to tell ya'll this, but here is my good deed since i missed church , Do not even attempt to purchase these tickets, or anything remotely resembling them

http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/tid/3038510619.html

This is a scammer, relatively new, by cloning an eBay page bla bla bla, Since i am in law enforcement I feel obliged in case someone gets too Pavlovian on me and starts drooling at 2nd row pit tickets for 200 each.


Rinse and repeat for any concert around the country.. If you try to buy these tickets the only thing you will see is your money disappear.

If you are in law enforcement and you know this is bogus (although I'd be kinda curious to know just how you are aware of this), then why aren't you setting up a sting to find this guy and bust him?

Ok, go ahead and buy his tickets, and see what happens, I have no jurisdiction over a scammer, who probably lives in the UK, and cloned an ebay page from the USA..

But dont cry to me when you send your money to a guy in London, because the guy in Pittsburgh is "on a business trip" to Alabama, so he has to have an escrow service based out of London sell them for him. And oh, he cannot take paypal, only WU..


But by all means, people like you keep me working for my 5 weeks of vacation.

quite honestly - I think the police have more important things to worry about than setting up a sting operation to bust some dude selling bogus tix on craigslist. I think I'd rather they set up a sting operation to bust drug dealers or child molestors....
