My favorite scam on Craigslist is someone who says they want an item and then offers to pay a higher than asked price for it to have it picked up later. When you deposit their check, which usually isn't good, they then get your account information. My standard response is either show up in person with cash or Fedex cash. I haven't gotten a favorable response yet.

I consider that a reasonable note of caution.

If you disagree, that is your prerogative, ignore it at your own risk.
