I believe this forum has a rule about discussing things you see in Craigs'list, and this thread is a good example of why.
It is no challenge at all to find 'questionable' things in Craigs'list. Anyone can post anything. It's very much "let the reader beware."
Sure, some of the ads are from innocent homeowners who are trying to stretch their dollars. Others are from sharks and criminals. Some, I'll wager, are even from 'authorities' seeking to entrap violators. (For example, the St. Louis paper often has ads seeking "Union" electricians willing to do "side work" - ads placed by the IBEW local to catch wayward members).
A certain restaurant chain ran a series of such ads across Missouri, seeing a licensed sparky in each county. No need to worry about the work, the ad said - we have our guys. We just need someone to pull permits. Sure- just what I need ... to lose my license by renting it out. No thanks.
I find that there is merit to the "Honor Code." I will not lie, cheat, steal - OR tolerate those who do. Ads like the one cited are clearly saying 'help me cheat.' Legal or not ... it's dishonorable.
