This is 'off-topic' because its on the Beijing craigslist instead of Seoul. I was just there seeking a laugh and boy did I find it. Here's one from "Men seeking women":

Hi,

If you would like to get an American green card and live and work in Los Angeles, I can help. I'm a single American man from Los Angeles and I'm seeking an Asian woman to work out a deal with.

Please write to me and I will explain more. Women with daughters welcome too.

Tom
this is in or around Los Angeles

My first thought was that it meant he was open to older women, because they generally have children - but then I thought, why didn't he say "children" and instead he said ...

Yeah, VERY creepy.

Hmm..

Hi,
I need to practise more speaking English. thats why i joined this site. I'm looking for good friend who can enjoy good conversation in English. I enjoy eating in restaurnts, in line skating, seeing movies, and going to mountains.
If you want I can teach you about korean culture. If you want to be good friends and have green card, don't hesitate to send me email.
I hope to learn about western culture, especially American and Canadians, beause I like to live in Vancouver one day.

Have a nice day!

What's funny is that he'll probably get many bites for this. What's even more funny is that this idiot asiaphile thinks that U.S immigration will just issue her a green card. It doesn't work like that anymore....U.S immigration is getting sick of these fraudelent marriages and these idiotic people who think that they can just marry into U.S citizenship. I've been studying immigration laws and I know the U.S is, as sad as it might sound, are especially wary of asian women because statistically they have entered the most of these fraudelent marriages. I'm married for real and I'm having a bitch of a time getting my husband down here....it takes YEARS to get someone a green card due to heavy background investigations now. And it really angers me that creepy perverts like this guy are enticing women with green cards because it ruins the chances of REAL spouses, like mine, to come to the U.S

*** And I'm sorry, but any woman who responds to an ad like this has it coming to her. I would think she's even more messed up and creepier than the guy, especially if she put her daughter thru this Shocked

Reminds me of the idiot Dave's user a few months back who posted his fabulous money making scheme. Marry some thai prostitute, take her back to the USA, put her to work as a prostitute in Las Vegas, collect half her pay for a few years, then allow her to divorce when she has secured her citizenship.
