Come n get'em

Cool. Thanks.

 

Well, at least my thread was good for something

This might be better on Jones' "I need a new quest" thread, but check this one out:

Speaking of "Come n get'em," this is taking things a bit too far...

Online hoax ad strips home of everything
TACOMA, Wash. - An online ad offering everything in the house for free left one landlord with quite a shock. By the time she realized what was going on, the house had been stripped of its light fixtures, hot water heater — even the kitchen sink.

Laurie Raye said she traced the damage to a fake ad on craigslist, a San Francisco-based Internet site for classifieds.

"The instigator who published this ad invited the public to come in and vandalize me," Raye told Seattle television station KING. She said the rental home wasn't occupied at the time because she had recently evicted a tenant, but it had other items inside.

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."

Raye said she contacted craigslist and received an e-mail saying officials would need a subpoena or search warrant to release information about who posted the ad.

 

I wonder if they have any clues as to who might have perpetrated this crime?

 

It turns out the tenant who was evicted was the victim's own sister: http://www.king5.com/localnews/stories/NW_040507WABcraigslistadLJ.34e92f1d.html
