I don't know if this is some kind of spam or a virus on my laptop or what is happening.

 

I do have a log-in for Craigslist but recently I've made some inquiries for a rocking chair for my daughter.   I didn't log-in, just randomly made some inquiries, mostly from my computer at work, sometimes at home too.

 

Last night I try to go on CL from my laptop at home, on my wi-fi which is password protected and a white screen comes up saying "this IP is blocked"

 

It gave me an email address to inquire why, not a link.

 

No one uses my laptop or wi-fi but me.

I'm not getting the message on my computer at work.

 

Has this ever happened to anyone?   Can this be some sort of virus?

Otherwise, I have no problems with my laptop that I know of.

I’m a scardy cat and wouldn’t even send an email unless it matches with the one on website. Strange message for you to receive.
