Fake Craigslist Ad Sentencing - KPTV - FOX 12

Four-year sentence handed down for man who targeted ex in Craigslist ads

Posted: Updated:

A man who admitted to using Craigslist to target his ex-girlfriend received a four-year prison sentence Monday, along with two years of post-prison supervision.

Andre Flom pleaded guilty to seven counts of identity theft last week.

He impersonated his ex-girlfriend, Catlin Moser, on Craigslist and created posts asking for sex.

"He was posting my name, my phone number and my address on Craigslist for really obscene sex parties. I was having men showing up at my house all hours of the night," Moser said.

Police said Flom posted the fraudulent ads during the course of a month.

Some of the other ads asked for people to "dismantle and remove a children's play structure" and "dig up an ornamental tree" in the victim's yard.

Flom was caught when a Multnomah County detective was able to track the ads to an IP address.

He was then arrested at a home in Gladstone.
