How To Avoid Falling For a Craigslist Weirdo

How To Avoid Falling For a Craigslist WeirdoWhen you are looking romance and casual hookups online, the easiest free dating site to look for them is on Craigslist. However, there are a lot of weirdos, spammers and psychos using the Casual Encounters sections of Craigslist on a regular basis.

When you are seeking someone to have online chat conversations with on Craigslist, there are certain things you need to know before setting yourself up for disappointment. Here is a small list of ads of should avoid when seeking a connection over Craigslist.

Avoid Poorly Spelled Ads

Most spammers have ads that feature grammatically incorrect phrases and headlines. You might see "Horny and Lonly" or "looking for some fon." If you reply to them, you will most likely be spammed with porn ads on your home computer. And if they`re not spammers, do you really want to date someone who can`t even spell the word ‘fun?` Yeah, I didn`t think so.

Pay Attention To Details

If you are looking at ads with a lot of personal details, then you are most likely talking to a real person. However, don`t expect to talk to her in a while, since most pretty girls usually have over 200 replies to go through. However, you can have your pick of BBWs if you want.

Beware of the Bots

There are some spam bots that actually have convincing ads but don`t be fooled. If you see a couple of words highlighted, it`s simply to promote for their services for their companies. You are not talking to a person, but rather you are talking to a spammer company.

Overall, I would just highly recommend you avoid CRAIGSLIST all together unless you are looking for a great deal on 42″ Flat Screen TV.
