Should I Buy a Stolen iPhone 4S?

Some guy found an iPhone 4S 32GB and wanted to sell it for $200 on Craigslist. It's probably been reported stolen.

So I was wondering if I buy it would i be able to use it on AT&T or tmobile?

Can I sell it to someone else for higher if they want to unlock it?

Sure police love it when you do that

You answered your question in first line of your question.
Probabli is stolen so? Any other suggestions?

Why not just break into a store and take everything?

Well, if I were you, I wouldn't buy it. It sucks to be in the owner's situation. Not only is it dangerous to keep it but it can be also traced through its IMEI. And if you bought it, you might be funding a thief's drugs. I mean, you're not sure whether he'll use it in a proper way or otherwise. He may use it to buy illegal drugs. So if you'll ask me, I wouldn't buy it.

Well first of all… You can track the phone once it's been turned on using the where my iPhone app in iCloud. Secondly if its been reported stolen there's a high chance that the ESN is bad

Nope
