Is there an easy way to find the source of craigslist email address postings?
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Unfortunately, the answer to your question is no. There is no easy way to find the source of Craig's List email address postings. Until the advertiser emails you back with interest in your offer, you won't be able to discover their true email address. If it is a business posting and the name of the business is mentioned in the ad, you could look up the business online and try to figure out the email address that way. Since businesses often have multiple email accounts, it is hard to discover which email address it is.
The source of Craig's List email address postings is hard to discover on purpose. It is a way to keep advertisers safe from scam artists and black hat marketers who would love to send them spam.
