Wow!
I just received a PM from a forum member (1 yr old account) who apparently got scammed on Craiglist by someone trying to make it look like the post is from Canary, thus leading this person to believe they were dealing with me.
I DON'T distribute on Craigslist, so anything on Craigslist isn't from me.Bummer, I've not had anyone try to impersonate me yet, this feels like shit!!
I have the email exchange forwarded to me by this person and if I get their permission I will post here...

I'd like to bring attention to this problem not only for my purposes but to prevent any further scamming as well as negative publicity to ASICMiner, and ALL resellers of ASICMiner.

http://redd.it/1q5kr6P.S. at the bottom of any CL listing there's a message:
Avoid scams, deal locally! Do NOT wire funds (Western Union, Moneygram).
Beware cashier checks, money orders, shipping, non-local buyers/sellers. More info
It's time for CL to add bitcoin to this list. It's worse than wiring funds, to send btc first on Craigslist.
