Crazy story, but it's true. You always meet in public places. I do a lot of trading on craigslist and other forums for the Monte, for my rims I drove to NJ and met at a mall parking lot, great exchange and worth it.

The thing about the story that really gets me... The victim has posted his lost dog on several Web sites — including craigslist — and filed a report with Dallas police.

If you got robbed using craigslist... I probably wouldn't want to use it ever again.

Well, a large number of criminals are not that bright. Perhaps the guy who stole the car/dog/money is stupid enough to respond to the "stolen dog" ad on Craigslist. LOL.

Or at least stupid enough to list the car and dog for sale on Craigslist. That would land them a spot on that "America's Dumbest Criminals" show.

Not trying to make light of the situation. I sincerely hope the guy gets his dog and car back UN-HARMED!

I know some people would say its just a stupid dog, but I would be devastated if I was him and on the hunt.

devastated, I went out tonight to get something to eat, came home, and I hear the lady across the street yelling, her dog got out of the house and got hit by a car, I turned around and saw the dog struggling to walk, maybe only a broken leg (I hope) but I was sick to my stomach really upset me.....

I'm sure there are people who would (and do) say "it's just a dog". But I see it as a living, breathing creature with feelings, a personality, etc. It's a friend and a member of the family. I would be on the hunt for it too.
