Craigslist posting codes and phone-code scams

Craigslist may request a phone verification during posting. A stranger asking you to relay that code is a warning sign.

Use a code only in the official posting flow

Craigslist says some posts require phone verification. The request should appear in the posting process on craigslist.org. A buyer, seller or chat contact who asks you to forward a Craigslist code is not performing a normal transaction; Craigslist publishes examples of this scam.

Complete the category, location and email steps first. Order an SMS number only if the actual official flow offers SMS and shows the destination. Requirements can differ by location, category and risk decision.

Availability and indicative prices by country

Indicative activation prices come from the current inventory snapshot. Check the picker for the exact app and country, pool, time window, and final CNY charge.

A number does not establish where you live

The US number guide shows Craigslist inventory and indicative USD prices; the picker gives the pool, expiry and final CNY charge. A US phone number does not establish residence in the city of a listing or exempt a post from Craigslist rules.

Posting limits, content rules and later replies are separate from a single phone check. Keep access to the email and account you use for editing and recovering a real listing.

No text or an unsolicited code

If the official page says it sent a text, compare the complete number and country code with your active order and use the current code. If it rejects the phone before sending, save that error and consult Craigslist help; SMS4U cannot change its decision.

Do not give an unexpected code to someone claiming it proves you are a real buyer or seller. End that conversation and inspect your post directly on craigslist.org. A temporary SMS receipt does not prove account ownership or transaction trustworthiness.
