The Seattle Times is reporting that a woman in nearby Tacoma had her rental property stripped of almost everything after someone posted a fake Craigslist announcement that everything in the house could be hauled away no questions asked. When contacted, Craigslist said they would release data about the poster if they were issued a subpoena.
The ad posted last weekend welcomed people to take for free anything they wanted from the home. It has since been pulled from the site, but not before the residence was stripped of light fixtures, the hot water heater and the kitchen sink.
Neighbors said they saw strangers hauling items away, apparently looking for salvage material.
Even the front door and a vinyl window were pilfered, Raye said.
"In the ad, it said come and take what you want. Everything is free," she said. "Please help yourself to anything on the property."
