Pleased you got wise before you got used and probably hurt. Just say you have decided to be with someone you already know and trust (yourself! :) ) if he harrasses you just ask him to politely leave you alone.

Ok so.... Where do you live?? :P
Just kidding. Honestly, just tell him that you changed your mind. As a man, I've had a few situations just like this where a woman was wanting to hang out and "have fun" but then changing her mind. If he's a good guy he may remain a good friend and then who knows when the time is right or... If he's a douche just click on the next post on craigslist ;).

 Tell him you changed your mind and aren't interested.
Anyone can "find you" if they wanted to. You're not living in isolation. Just be cautious of back alleys like you normally have to be, I don't think this should be an extra reason to worry about an assault.

Send him a polite message to tell him that you’ve changed your mind and don’t want to have a no-strings encounter. Wish him all the best, then just leave it. If he persists in emailing you don’t reply to the emails, but there’s every chance that once he knows that the arrangement has been called off he’ll leave you in peace and find what he wants from some-one else. Remove the advert that you placed, if you can. You should probably set up a different email account from your main address for such correspondence in the future.
I wish you all the very best.

Delete the craigslist ad and google your email address to what info can be found. You'd be surprized what you may find.

 Just because you post an ad doesn't mean you're obligated to do anything. You can continue to ignore him and eventually he'll get the hint. Or you can send him a brief email stating in so many words that you had a change of heart and then block him to cease contact with him. It's your life and your body and you don't owe any man sex under any circumstances.
