Clearly isn't real.

"We are a new an upcoming company"
"There is 10 positions available at this moment"

- grammatically not even close to correct...waste of time to even bother posting. Not sure why I bothered to reply. Waste of time and resources all around.

Yes, we all know the feeling.


Is that what did it for you, the grammer? I guess it is pretty common knowledge that all club owners have great command of the English language. So foolish of me.

This.

And let's just say by the small chance it is real, this operation will go under in no time. The quality of writing in that craigslist posting is that of a elementary schooler

Got to give credit to the guy though, it's a crafty way to pray on stupid girls. Too bad for him, and good for the stupid girls, his English proficiency is pathetic.

Why wait for his approval? I think you should be proactive and go ahead and submit his info. You may need to line up a photo shoot but I am sure he will be all about it after seeing the photos that surfaced on facebook of he and his wife.

You're saying that being grammatically incorrect LESSENS the chances that it's a real posting on Craigslist? If anything, the combo of Craigslist and potential strip club makes the grammar of the posting add to the potential legitimacy.
