As the saying goes, if it sounds too good to be true: Two men arrested in Craigslist scams.
The scam was pretty simple:
Two men suspected of selling boxes of rubbish designed to look like expensive electronic items to about 100 people throughout the Bay Area have been arrested and are expected to be arraigned this afternoon.

If you can’t believe what a bargain you’re getting, you probably aren’t.
