CRAIGSLIST TIPS: How to find distressed sellers and dirt-cheap deals on stuff you actually want to buy
(CRAIGSLIST GEORGIA) - Most Craigslist users in Georgia are trustworthy and well-intentioned and
the vast majority of eCommerce deals in the Peach State go off without a
hitch. Unfortunately, a small percentage have also resulted in scams,
robberies, assaults -- and worse.
Please be safe when you buy and sell on Craigslist Georgia and similar websites
like Offer Up and Facebook Marketplace. Exercise common-sense precautions
and make your exchange in a well-lit public place with cameras and/or Georgia law
enforcement present.
The following police and Sheriff stations in Georgia offer their lobby,
parking lot or both as a place to safely conduct internet transactions.
