If I'm correct, you're misreading the communication from Craigslist. What you're seeing is a Captcha "challenge," which you'll see on many other sites as well, to prove you're not a robot. Answer the challenge and then proceed. (Sometimes you don't have to do anything but check a box.)

Hello,

Not to worry! This is just a security measure that checks whether the user is robot or human.
