Description

Craigslist just implemented a geo ip detection security protocol, can u get around it?

Only bid if u are familiar with the circumvention of this security algorithm.

I need 100 image ads posted 5 days a week in the jobs section if you can get past geo ip detection.

I only pay live and flagged. I will need ad links to verify ads everyday.

Please bid per 1 image ad posted.

Here is the September article on geo ip detection in case u haven't seen it;

"Recent craigslist update cracks down on spammers

As part of Craigslist’s evolving efforts to crack down on fake ads and “e-whoring”, Craigslist is now using GEO-IP detection for its ads. It used to allow people from outside a particular city to post ads for that city. Eg. someone who lives in Seattle could post ads in Washington DC. That’s all changed now. Your IP must reflect the location you are posting to.

I am not sure how effective this would be in the long run. Craigslist is so lucrative for blackhat marketers that they have successfully bypassed previous antispam efforts. Even Craigslist’s lawsuit against one of the biggest CL ad posting software companies don’t deter other apps from popping up to take its place. Here’s a quick history based on a historical observation of craigslist’s ad volume/section activity (NOTE: we don’t condone any of the behaviors discussed in this entry. This is purely for news commentary purposes only.)

Antispam measure: community flagging of ’suspect’ ads Workaround: post tons of ads to compensate for the kill rate.

Antispam measure: autoghosting of ads Workaround: posts tons of ads to compensate for the ghost rate.

Antispam measure: Phone verified accounts Workaround: Spammers would place free ads on other sites that trick people inito phone verifying accounts. They then turnaround and sell these in bulk to other CL posters.

It is an evolutionary arms race. Similar to how predator and prey evolve in the natural world. The prey would evolve a defense, the predator evolves to defeat that defense. Never-ending."
