Family loses everything, thanks to poorly worded Craigslist ad

The Vercher family lost their home to foreclosure and wanted to pare down their personal stuff before moving out. "Fairly large, free yard sale," Michael Vercher wrote on Craigslist. "Moving and we want everything to go for free." The Georgia man meant everything he had stacked outside, but the massive crowd that showed up took everything to mean, well, EVERYTHING. The bargain-hunters broke into the house before the scheduled start of the sale, taking "family keepsakes, all their clothes and shoes" and anything else that wasn't nailed down. Now they're begging for their personal items back. "We don't have much and now we have even less," Michael said. "We don't hold any grudges, we just want our stuff back." [Source]
