Person A bought some tickets on Craigslist from person B. They were E-tickets with an e-mailed receipt noting the purchase details from a known online vendor. Everything looked legitimate, so person A bought the tickets thinking he/she got a great deal. Person A's guest to the event dropped out at the last minute, so Person A sold the tickets to Person C on Craigslist.

It turns out the tickets were fakes, and now Person C is threatening person A with legal action, etc. Person A had no intent to sell illegal items. Had Person A's guest not cancelled at the last minute, he/she would have learned the hard way at the event.

Is Person A on the hook here for the money exchanged with Person C?
 
No. Each person is equally aware of the abundance of scams on Craigslist and deserves whatever they got for using it.
