Craigslist can be a handy resource for finding some great deals - but beware of photos!
Consumer advocacy expert David Bakke, of MoneyCrashers.com, says there is a dangerous feature on Craigslist that could harm you or your computer. Most items for sale on there have a photo. However, some of them have an option that says “Email me for a photo.” Do NOT click that option. In many cases, scammers use this tool to send you a virus. Clicking on the photo or link they send may open to a page that isn’t what it seems. Stick to the items that provide photos of what you’re in the market for.
