Craigslist is perhaps a mecca for classified ads on the internet but that wasn't the case for one Tacoma woman. She says she was robbed.

Laurie Raye said she had everything stripped from her home after someone placed a fake ad on the San Francisco section of Craigslist.

The most horrible thing was the ad posted last weekend said welcomed people to take for free anything they wanted from the home. It has since been pulled from the site, but not before the residence was stripped of light fixtures, the hot water heater and the kitchen sink.
