How Do I Get A Illegal Posting Removed?

My sister is the target of a hoax. A posting invites people to her house. She is VERY afraid. She does not have internet and I can't find a phone number to call you. The following post must be removed: http://salem.craigslist.org/gms/2745143781.html. The police have been notified, but the post is still there. I've sent emails to craigslist abuse as directed.

Craigslist customer support unfortunately is minimal. Complaints of this nature are received via http://sfbay.craigslist.org/cgi-bin/emailForm.cgi. If you've already done this and notified the police, you've done all you can.
