Merci chère Emilie de remonter cette information. Je vous rassure, les arnaqueurs passent uniquement via l'application Airbnb. Il faut protéger les personnes influençables et qui peuvent tomber dans leur piège.
Voici un exemple de leur message :
Greetings again, I myself am from Russia, I have been living and working in the USA for a long time, as I said, I am going on a business trip to you, and I will live in the apartment of my friends. So look, we will book at you again at an overpriced price, you do not need documents, as the airbnb sends everything to them by mail, reservation numbers, etc., and I just need to provide an extract from Airbnb about the debit of money from my card to get a refund from the employer. You get 20% for help (80% to return to me through Western Union / Transferwise / SWIFT / MoneyGram) of the amount that BNB will send after all tax deductions, that is, for 7-14 days you will earn at least 500-600 $. We will not live naturally. Everything will happen as a normal reservation through airbnb. We’ll pay off after the airbnb transfers money to your card / bank account, you can transfer my part by a regular transfer (Western Union / Transferwise / SWIFT / MoneyGram) so that no one will go anywhere, and I will introduce the fact that transferring money in cash is not profitable for me, because I can’t to transport this money, so I ask you to send it to my brother’s name, since he lives in Russia, and there is still no currency control there, and from there he will transfer to me as a relative and thus our agreement can never be proved by anyone. What do you think?
The amount of reservation varies from $ 2500 for a period of 7-14 days.
If you have any comments then we can discuss them.
