Investigators are unsure whether the ad was a crude hoax, or someone actually trying to sell a child online. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement launched the probe Friday, soon after the ad was posted to the popular classifieds website.
The poster also claimed to live in a quiet influential neighborhood and to work for the department of children and families.

(14,494 posts)4. Sounds like a revenge posting to me.
If so, that would cause a world of trouble for any employee of the department of children and families.
On the other hand, this is a bazaaro world we live in today and as the article says, this crime is not entirely unheard of.
