Beware of Craigslist scams!
A 50-year-old woman and 28-year-old man were fleeced of their cash and cellphones in the Bayview on Thursday by two conniving crooks who placed an ad on Craigslist advertising a car for sale, cops said.
Around 7:30 p.m. in the unit block of Ignacio Avenue the two victims came upon the agreed meeting place only to be confronted by two thugs with handguns, police said. The criminals took the cash and cellphones and fled.
Cops described the gun-toting goons as two men in their 20s. No arrests have been made.
