With freecycle there is no money involed. Everything posted must be free.

Nonsense! I use the service all the time. All it is is an internet board
where you can post messages about items that you have to give, or
items that you need. You select a recipient from the email replies
that you get.
I have given away items on the board. I have received items from
posters on that board.
If the FBI gets involved, it would only be because they are trying to
find a way to tax it.
So I say HOGWASH! to the idea that freecycle is corrupt. It is a free
service!
