Um ...
Craigslist really tries to prevent scams, and does block reported IDs.
They have a whole page of warnings, and advice how to avoid scams.
They even have a very short and workable suggestion for those gormless members who cannot accept the fact that Craigslist is not responsible for total protection against scams:
This is it:
DEAL LOCALLY WITH FOLKS YOU CAN MEET IN PERSON!
follow this one rule and avoid 99% of scam attempts.
