V-103’s Morning Show producer Nina Brown appeared on Channel 2 news last night to talk about her recent experience with Craigslist. Nina apparently attempted to purchase airline tickets but was ripped off twice when she found out that the tickets were invalid upon her arrival at the airport. She subsequently had to pay way more for tickets to her destination.

Another close friend of mine had the same experience recently when she tried to purchase a buddy pass from an airline employee. All I know is, too many people have been burned by Craigslist in one way or another. I’m not saying stay away, but I am definitely saying take every precaution when planning on purchase or selling anything online…especially “A”zz. What?? Don’t act. They just caught that craigslist murderer the other day and I know some of y’all got that side-gig going…
