The Internet has become both a burden and a blessing. On the one hand, it’s given all of us the ability to access more than millions of pieces of information at the click of a mouse. On the other hand, it’s given all of us the ability to access more than millions of pieces of information at the click of a mouse.

Police caught a guy who tried to sell a stolen car on Craigslist.org where the owner found it, according to WPBF.com.

The victim lost his car and was looking for a replacement when he found an ad on Craigslist. It was perfect. It had the same make and model, the same color and even the same license plate as his old car.

It turned out to be his old car. Police responded to the ad and caught the thief just a few days later. That’s what you get for a FREE classifieds ad.
