The number one online marketplace for narcotics, prostitution, human trafficking, stolen property, or organized retail theft rings is not a secret site on the Dark Web. It is sitting right under your nose on Craigslist.
In almost every area Craigslist has evolved to become a destination marketplace for buys and sellers of:
- Narcotics-Including heroin, cocaine, methamphetamine, MDMA, marijuana, and prescription medications
- Sex Crimes-Prostution, human trafficking, bestiality, commercially sexually exploited children, and child enticement
- Stolen Property-Metal theft, fencing operations, organized retail crime groups, and stolen military equipment
- Other Illegal Goods and Services-Possession and distribution of explosives, government assistance fraud, and intellectual property crimes
Criminals are openly advertising these items and more in your jurisdiction. The key to finding illegal activity on Craigslist is to understand the secret language used in postings, locate other indicators of criminal activity, properly serve the company with legal process, and perform effective investigations and enforcement operations. ONLINE INVESTIGATIONS: Craigslist gives law enforcement officers the tools and techniques they need to proactively investigate and prosecute cases in their area. Topics covered include:
Craigslist Basics-Identifying Crime Related Keywords, Decoding Slang, and a Dictionary of Common Terms Associated with Criminal Activity

I have been working narcotics for ten years. I thought most of the illegal activity on Craigslist was prostitution. I had no idea I could find cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, prescription medications, and hallucinogens there. Craigslist is my new source for proactive narcotics investigations. Narcotics Task Force Officer, Oakland
I thought it was impossible to do narcotics investigations on patrol. Using these techniques I am able to get dealers to deliver drugs right to me. Patrol Officer, Houston
It doesn't matter what your specialty or assignment is: narcotics, human trafficking, crimes against children, metal theft, burglary, or organized retail theft. This book has something for everyone. I use the free tools covered in this book on all types of investigations, not just those involving Craigslist. Detective, Denver
