Oregon “Hoax” Solved, Message Sent:
Kudos to law enforcement in southern Oregon for arresting the perpetrators behind this outrage.
Covering your tracks by posting on craigslist has about as much chance of success as pinning your name and number to door of the local police precinct.
Criminals take a giant risk when they use craigslist in conjunction with illegal activity, since an electronic trail is created that law enforcement officers can easily follow.

Glad to hear that arrests were made, after the trail was followed. Sad to read tho - just how far people will go to harm others…
Hope things like this will not prevent CraigsList from providing this great service.

I’m glad CL has created ways to track these future jailbirds! It’s ridiculous the scammers that are out there. Keep up the good work CL and Law Enforcement!!!
