In the digital age, the promise of a simple transaction can unravel into something far darker — a reminder that the marketplace has moved online, but human vulnerability has not. Two men allegedly turned a Craigslist meetup in Revere into a robbery before fleeing, only to be caught Monday morning in Charlestown after a police pursuit ended in a crash. The swift apprehension speaks to coordinated law enforcement, but the deeper question lingers: how do we safeguard the ordinary exchanges that now define modern commerce?
