Browsing CL last night, I noticed something new- you no longer see the prices on the [whatever you call the page where all the vehicles are shown]- You have to click on an ad, and then you see the price once you are actually in that ad.
No doubt another stupid move to try and combat scammers and those who are stupid enough to fall for the idiotic scams (unlike the OP, who at least had the sense to post here).
Why is it that EVERYTHING these days caters to the lowest common denominator? First it was government...now private companies are doing it. Sure...make things harder and harder for the rest of us...just because it might save some simpleton from falling for a scam...which it won't, because there will always be scams, and there will always be people who fall for them,
No wonder the Western world is in serious decline. And of course, the scammers will just figure out a way around the new speedbump- like putting the price in the image....so this will only end up affecting honest sellers and everyone who's looking to buy.....
Hopefully they'll realize what a bad idear this is, and it'll only be temporary...like when we had to complete a captcha puzzle on every listing to get the contact info- which only lasted about a week....
Idiots!
And ironically, the 3 or so ads I clicked on last night.....were all scams! Now normal people who could spiot the scams just by the price....no longer have that option- so we now end up clicking on the ads because a vital piece of info is missing....in the hopes it'll keep Cletus from clicking on that ad....
They don't think these things through very well, do they?
