Random ABNB message

[Geoffrey209]

Hi All,

I recently received the following message in my ABNB inbox. I've already been hosting for almost two years. I replied to the message as suggested, asking if it was legit but haven't received a reply after 24hrs.

Does the message seem legit? Am I being overly cautious?

Geoff


Thank you for providing information about your Airbnb account. We weren't able to verify ******* ********'s government ID. To complete verification of the account, upload Geoffrey Chalmers's valid government ID (not expired) that includes a date of birth at this web address:

And a link to this....

If you have questions or need help with this process, reply to this message.

Thanks,

Hard to tell without seeing the URL they have asked you to click  on @Geoffrey209 

Has your government ID expired ? If so Airbnb may ask you to update. 

or it could be a scam

what did Airbnb say when you called them?

Thank you for your reply....I can't give link as it's to my details. Probably as I'm logged in.

ID hasn't expired. 

Probably no big deal, but put it out there in case others had received same.

Again...thank you for your response.

Geoff
