Craigslist Customer FAQ

If your Craigslist account has been put on hold, it may be due to a violation of Craigslist's terms of use or because of suspicious activity spotted. These actions could include posting prohibited items, spamming, flagging misuse, or other inappropriate behaviors. Craigslist takes such violations seriously to maintain a safe and respectful community. Usually, you should receive an email from Craigslist detailing why your account was put on hold. If you believe this was made in error, respond directly to that email. Please make sure you understand and adhere to Craigslist's terms of use to prevent future holds or suspensions.

Sorry to hear about your experience. Craigslist does not have a mechanism to moderate buyer and seller communication. You should block the person's email address using your email provider's measures to stop receiving their messages. If the problem persists, you can consider removing and reposting your ad with a different contact method. Remember not to engage with people who behave inappropriately. Stay safe while using the platform and only communicate with persons who show genuine interest in your ad.

Craigslist does not typically provide a refund if your post gets flagged for removal. Flagging is an important tool used to identify and remove inappropriate or fraudulent posts, which is guided by Craigslist community guidelines. If your post follows all of these guidelines but was flagged, it may be because users found it inappropriate or miscategorized. It would help to review your post and make sure it aligns with all of Craigslist's terms and conditions.

A post on Craigslist may be flagged and therefore not show up for several reasons. It could be due to a violation of Craigslist's posting policies, like including prohibited items, offensive language, or personal information. It can also occur if the post is too similar to another one you've recently listed or if you've posted in the wrong category. Flagging can also result if your post has been reported by others as spam or inappropriate. Always ensure that your post adheres to Craigslist's Terms of Use and community guidelines to avoid flagging.
