Apparently, this is a "hoax" - see http://www.snopes.com/crime/justice/mugger.asp. But actually, it may be closer to satire.

            AN ACTUAL CRAIG'S LIST 
            PERSONALS AD
            To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown 
            Savannah night before last.
            Date: 2010-09-27, 1:43 a.m. 
            E.S.T.
            I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket 
            that you demanded that I hand over, shortly after you pulled the 
            knife on me and my girlfriend, threatening our lives. You also asked 
            for my girlfriend's purse and earrings. I can only hope that you 
            somehow come across this rather important message.
            First, I'd like to apologize for your 
            embarrassment; I didn't expect you to actually crap in your pants 
            when I drew my pistol after you took my jacket.. The evening was not 
            that cold, and I was wearing the jacket for a reason.. my girlfriend 
            was happy that I just returned safely from my 2nd tour as a Combat 
            Marine in Afghanistan .. She had just bought me that Kimber Custom 
            Model 1911 .45 ACP pistol for my birthday, and we had picked up a 
            shoulder holster for it that very evening. Obviously you agree that 
            it is a very intimidating weapon when pointed at your head ... isn't 
            it?!
            I know it probably wasn't fun walking back to 
            wherever you'd come from with crap in your pants. I'm sure it was 
            even worse walking bare-footed since I made you leave your shoes, 
            cell phone, and wallet with me. [That prevented you from calling or 
            running to your buddies to come help mug us again].
            After I called your mother or "Momma" as you 
            had her listed in your cell, I explained the entire episode of what 
            you'd done. Then I went and filled up my gas tank as well as those 
            of four other people in the gas station, -- on your credit card. The 
            guy with the big motor home took 153 gallons and was extremely 
            grateful!
            I gave your shoes to a homeless guy outside 
            Vinnie Van Go Go's, along with all the cash in your wallet. [That 
            made his day!]
            I then threw your wallet into the big pink 
            "pimp mobile" that was parked at the curb .... after I broke the 
            windshield and side window and keyed the entire driver's side of the 
            car.
            Earlier, I managed to get in two threatening 
            phone calls to the DA's office and one to the FBI, while mentioning 
            President Obama as my possible target.
            The FBI guy seemed really intense and we had a 
            nice long chat (I guess while he traced your number 
            etc.).
            ;In a way, perhaps I should apologize for not 
            killing you ... but I feel this type of retribution is a far more 
            appropriate punishment for your threatened crime. I wish you well as 
            you try to sort through some of these rather immediate pressing 
            issues, and can only hope that you have the opportunity to reflect 
            upon, and perhaps reconsider, the career path you've chosen to 
            pursue in life.. Remember, next time you might not be so lucky. Have 
            a good day!
            Thoughtfully yours, Semper Fi!
            Alex
