Heed The Harpy

A Wisconsin woman is facing a felony charge for posing as her ex-boyfriend and posting a Craigslist personals ad seeking other men to call him at work and "talk dirty to him." According to the criminal complaint, 20-year-old Kari Heath placed the ad last month after an argument with her (now ex-) boyfriend Joseph Strasburg.

The ad, posted in Craigslist's "Casual Encounters" section, included his business phone number, along with several photos of the 24-year-old Strasburg, including one she had taken of his erect penis. Strasburg contacted cops after men began calling his workplace to respond to the online ad. Strasburg told investigators that Heath subsequently sent him a text message admitting responsibility for the prank, which resulted in her arrest for identity theft.
