There were some duplicates of the above that I noticed posted last night. Revisiting these links may yield the duplicates for some of us.

If anyone would like to help we audiokarma folks could consider posting more warnings concerning this nutbar.

I've done a few, but personally find that process frustrating, and would rather provide a support role for others willing to post the warnings.

So in case it's helpful, here is a directory with fairly eye-catching images that can be used in warning ads. It's not complete but has entries corresponding to most of the scam ads currently in rotation. I'll update it periodically as others appear and change.
 
More entries for your mouse flagging pleasure:

You may need to use multiple browsers. Our friend is refreshing the posts in such a way that they don't always show if recently flagged. Have fun! Be thankful that we can click him into mania.

My computer skills are limited but I am happy to play a supporting (flagging) role as well.:thumbsup:
 
I don’t know if we’ll ever get him shut down this way, but at least it must make it more difficult for him. Thanks for keeping the momentum.

For me, it’s my morning coffee routine: fire up the ipad, flag all of “Dave”’s postings, turn off the WiFi so the iPad goes to cellular, flag ‘em again. All flagged before the coffee is gone and hopefully that much closer to being flagged off of craigslist.
