Why Is My Main Account [email protected] On Hold? I've Emailed ...

I HAVE EMAILED OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND ZERO RESPONSE FROM ANYONE WITH CRAIGSLIST... IS THIS POSTING SITE A SCAM IN ITSELF?  From: Erich Keefer [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, April 14, 2012 6:24 PM To: '[email protected]' Subject: MY MAIN ACCOUNT ON HOLD DUE TO FRAUD AND A HACKER! PLEASE RELEASE MY ACCOUNT- I ADVERTISE HERE FOR WORK AND 40 LISTINGS   GET MY ACCOUNT BACK ON…. WE USE IT FOR WORK PURPOSES.  YOU HELD MY ACCOUNT FOR ZERO REASONS…. NOW GET THE ACCOUNT ON.  YOU DID THIS TWO YEARS AGO WHEN SOMEONE HACKED INTO MY OTHER MAIN ACCOUNT [email protected] AND NOW YOU HAVE DOEN IT TO [email protected].  WTF?  YOU HAVE NO PHONE TECH ASSISTANCE, YOU HAVE NO ONE WHO IS LIVE TO TALK TO AND YOU IGNORE EMAILS.   ALL OF MY STUFF IS ON THE ACCOUNT [email protected].   WHAT IS GOING ON? NOW THIS ACCOUNT IS ON HOLD…. I HAVE HAD FRAUD PROBLEMS WITH ANOTHER ACCOUNT AND HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO RETRIEVE THE ACCOUNT FROM TWO YEARS AGO AND THE PERSON IN QUESTION THEN IS SERVING TIME IN PRISON FOR IDNETITY THEFT VIA THE INTERNET INCLUDING CRAIGSLIST.COM.   NOW IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN…. THIS IS NOT A SAFE PLACE TO LIST THINGS FOR SALE, LIST JOB POSTINGS AND NOT SAFE FOR A RESUME.   WHY IS [email protected] on HOLD?  BECAUSE OF ANOTHER HACKER WHO HAS BEEN CHARGED AS OF YESTERDAY FOR ID THEFT, INTERNET FRAUD AND BANK FRAUD?  HER NAME IS LISA BERNADETTE DAVIS… SHE WAS A PAST TENANT WHO WAS REMOVED BY THE SHERIFF AND POLICE… AND SINCE SHE HAS RETALLIATED…. AND WE KNOW THAT IT IS HER BECAUSE SHE HAS HACKED INTO ALL THREE OF MY CRAIGSLIST ACCOUNTS…. NOW MY AIN WORK ACCOUNT HAS BEEN PUT ON HOLD…. WHY?   YOU HAVE MY MAIN ACCOUNT ON HOLD WHICH I LIST ABOUT 40 THINGS FOR SALE AT ONE TIME INCLUDING VEHICLES, RENTALS, ITEMS FOR SALE, MY RESUME, JOB POSTINGS, ETC.  IF THIS HAS TO DO WITH FRAUD- WE HAVE A RESTRAINING ORDER ON A WOMAN WHO STOLE MY IDENTITY AND HAS POSED BANK FRAUD AND INTERNET FRAUD NAME LISA B DAVIS, AN OLD TENANT WHO WAS EVICTED FROM HER RESIDENCE AND WE HAVE A $2500 JUDGEMENT AGAINST HER.  SHE STOLE MY BANK CARD AND CHARGED FROM MY CHECKING ACCOUNT.  PLEASE REMOVE THE HOLD ON MY ACCOUNT BECAUSE OF THIS PERSON WHO HAS TWO FELONY CHARGES AGAINST HER RIGHT NOW, THREE MISDEMEANORS AND NOW A JUDGEMENT WITH A RESTRAINING ORDER BY US.  PLEASE NOW RELEASE MY ACCOUNT OR I WILL BRING THE POLICE INTO THIS BECAUSE YOU ARE HOLDING MY ACCOUNT FOR NO GOOD REASON.  THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

Craigslist's one-on-one support is essentially non-existent. I know it's frustrating, but with the huge volume of posts, nearly all free, it's understandable. Craigslist's staff is tiny.

If you haven't yet done so, you can submit this Craigslist form, but don't hold your breath waiting for an answer.

Craigslist states:

Postings may be removed or omitted from index pages and search results by automated systems, craigslist staff, or community moderation, for reasons including failure to comply with terms of use, posting guidelines, and/or community norms.

For more guidance, see the full Craigslist page.
