Made An Price Error On My Ad .. I Corrected It, But Am I In Trouble For 'scam'?

I listed a car for lease transfer, with a $3000 cash incentive by me. but when i stated what the "effective" new monthly lease payment would be (current one is 589/mth for 24mths) , I miscalculated and put down $375 when it should have been $464. I caught the mistake 2 days later and corrected it. I also reported my correction to craigslist help. SHould I do anything else? I dont want to get accused of "misrepresentation" or "scam". it was a calculation error. thoghts?

Craigslist's actions against posters are in my experience unpredictable, so I can't guarantee you won't be blocked. But there's nothing more you could co.
