1.) If you are not interested, they ARE. Same with buying/selling on Craig’s list…. If you are interested in something.. the user usually never gets back to you!
2.)Fake people scamming on you to see your private pics….. fake people on Craig’s list wanting you to send out the product you’re selling and then “they’ll mail you the payment”!
3.)Someone will e-mail you, and instead of a courteous e-mail, it usually is a list of questions and demands that your profile clearly stated had they taken the time to read it…. Craig’s list users will e-mail you with demanding questions.. usually about information already present in the “for sale” ad.
4.) If you get an e-mail from either Craig’s list or your dating profile, that starts out with “Hello there, …..” you know you’re in for a scam of some sort!
5.)Neither users know how to draft an e-mail properly… this can be blamed on Facebook and all the iPhone users! When you do receive an e-mail it’s usually haphazardly written in incomplete sentences, no punctuation, or form.
6.) Dating site users often e-mail you asking “are you looking”.. Craig’s list users often e-mail you asking “is it still available”….. you can answer the question.. but THEY’LL NEVER respond back….
7.)Both users want to meet up at some point to either meet you or check out what you are selling… which is fine.. it’s necessary.. HOWEVER.. the user will e-mail you with a date and time already planned out and god help you if you had not penciled that in your schedule already!!!
8.) You want to date a certain age range or want a certain price for something… users think that an unrealistic price or age is NOT unreasonable!!
9.)Blocking and “Flagging” do absolutely nothing…. The user will just make a new account!!!
10.) Both users think that its fine to post a profile or item for sale…and not post any pictures….when question the users usually cry that they do not have a camera which is a bunch of shit.. since you know they more than likely have an iPhone (or a cell phone in general!)!!
