One woman in Jacksonville, Florida, sold her urine and positive pregnancy tests on Craigslist to pay her way through college.

In a now-removed post on the Jacksonville-area Craigslist page, the woman said she offered "positive pregnancy tests or urine" in an "absolutely no questions asked type of deal."

"Very self explanatory," the post read. "I am 3 months [pregnant] and I am providing a product in which the consumer is able to purchase positive pregnancy tests or urine for your own use."

"Whether you are using it for your own amusement such as a prank, or to blackmail the ceo of where ever who you are having an affair with I DONT CARE AT ALL," it continued.

"I will not overcharge for the urine test," she promised. "But I will not be low balled either do not contact me if you are going to be cheap and difficult."

WJAX/WFOX decided to investigate the operation, and sent one extremely brave intern to meet up with the woman, who delivered on her promise and handed over a positive test in a bathroom.

The woman, who chose to stay unidentified, said she began selling her urine after browsing online for work she could perform while she was pregnant.

"I saw from other women and their experiences that it's very easy," she said, explaining that she makes "$200 in a day off something I have to do no matter what."

"Me being in college working on a bachelor's and needing all this money to pay for a degree, this was a no-brainer," she continued.

Though it's certainly rare, this shockingly isn't the first time Craigslist has seen this type of sale. The Daily Dot interviewed a pregnant woman selling her positive test on the site in 2014, who said women wanted the stick in order to fake pregnancies and even -- in one instance -- get back at a boyfriend's disapproving mother.

Even more surprisingly, this questionable business plan is not illegal. Although the sale of bodily fluids is prohibited on Craigslist, WJAX/WFOX's legal expert Dale Carson said these actions fall into a "legal gray area." While there are no laws against selling urine, a buyer seeking to fake a pregnancy could be subject to fraud charges.

Hey, you've got to respect that entrepreneurial spirit.
