Tips & Warnings
Should a post not contain any contact info, Craigslist says you can notify the poster by clicking the "Send Note" button at the bottom of the post.
Don't contact Craigslist posters for matters irrelevant to the subject matter of an ad. Doing so violates Craigslist's "Terms of Use" and may constitute harassment if you engage in such behavior on an ongoing basis.
