My town just gets more and more interesting, found this in the local news. :roll: I understand the reasoning behind having to do an investigation, but if they look at the other ads such as wives looking to sell their couch potato husbands, they would know it's a joke like these other ones.
http://www.windsorstar.com/health/probe+free+baby+offer+Kijiji/3066054/story.htmlEssex County OPP are investigating a Kijiji ad posting that advertised a free six-month-old child in Belle River.
Kijiji did not respond to a request for an interview on Monday, but OPP believe the ad to be a hoax.
The ad boasted a free healthy six-month-old child. It said the baby could come with a car seat, baby food, stroller and some clothes.
Now removed, the ad listed a general Belle River address and had about 300 views by Monday afternoon.
The Children’s Aid Society, the OPP’s Essex County criminal investigation unit and Lakeshore OPP are investigating.
Anyone with information about the person reponsible for posting the ad is asked to contact Essex County OPP at 519-723-2491 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
