I'm considering meeting someone from Craigslist for a transaction or possibly just to socialize, but I'm concerned about my safety. I've heard mixed reviews about Craigslist encounters and want to know if it's generally SAFE to do so.

The vast majority of Craigslist users are genuine and have honest intentions. However, when engaging in transactions with individuals you've never met before, it's essential to take precautions to ensure your safety.

One of the most important steps is to insist on meeting in a public place. This not only provides a sense of security but also deters any potential criminal activity.

A bank or police department are ideal meeting spots as they are well-lit, populated, and have security personnel on-site. These locations offer a neutral ground where both parties can feel comfortable and secure.

Some police departments even have designated buy/sell areas that are specifically set up for Craigslist transactions. These areas are often monitored by security cameras and are regularly patrolled by officers.

Additionally, it's a good idea to bring a friend or family member with you to the meeting. Having someone else present can provide an extra layer of protection and can serve as a witness in case of any unforeseen events.
