You never meet anyone you work for; there is absolutely no risk. There is nothing more wrong with Craigslist than with Facebook or any other social media where people can meet. How many sexual predator's have been caught luring young girls using Facebook? It is impossible for these sites to be completely policed. When you're online, you can literally be anyone you want to be. Who's going to know if you are or not? Not to be mean, but how do you know the people you talk on PC to are who they say they are? The best advice is to take caution, with Craigslist or anything else for that matter. I have NEVER met an employer face to face that I've worked for from home.
