Craig’s List Hoax Causes Robert Salisbury of Jacksonville, Oregon To Lose All His Stuff

So someone posted an ad on Craigs List, saying that Robert needed to leave the area suddenly, and that all his possessions, including his horse, were up for immediate grabs. The ad stated that everything was free for the taking. Well as you can probably guess, Salisbury did not place the ad, nor did he have any knowledge of the ad. So he was alerted by someone who became suspicious after going to the house to retrieve the free horse. Robert was then alerted as to what was going on, and he rushed home some 30 minutes later. As he got close to his house, he could see cars passing him in the opposite direction with his belongings hanging out. This must have been a really terrible thing to see, getting close to your house, not knowing what to expect, and then seeing cars loaded down with your stuff. Robert tried to stop some of the people taking his stuff, but they showed him the Craigs List ad, and said that because of the ad they were allowed to take whatever they wanted, and continued on their way. The police and Craigs list are now investigating.
