Scam alert! How can I make sure a listing is real?

[Kim207]

This will be my first time using Airbnb so I'm a bit weary about listings being fake.

What can I do to make sure a listing is real and not a scam?

What should I be looking out for?

Thanks

Could you verify this location for me?

That was super helpful! Can I please get your expertise on this house? Seems too good to be true for me.

Hi I am looking at this air bnb user who’s renting out his private room for 1 month. It looks decent not over the top and it’s only around $499. Im

worried that he’s a scammer? Would be great if  could look at this link and let me know!

Hi All,
Old forum, I know, but any thoughts on the legitimacy of this listing? My initial thoughts are that it's too good to be true! Beautiful place, not horrendously expensive, very few details and no reviews, with a a suspect profile/host picture!
Many thanks,

Annie

How can check if it's not fake Airbnb? I have installed the app and also using the web at the same time.

What rules I have to assure?

Thanks

Hi @Cynthia-and-Chris1, I'm having the same issues.  This guy is supposedly renting his place through Airbnb and he says that everything should be done through Airbnb for safety.  He just shared this link through email:

https://www.airbnb.mx/rooms/2878128

When I tried to access the Airbnb logo, it doesn't take you anywhere.  If you tried to see any of the people who already stayed in this place, you cannot see any of the profiles.  Finally, if you tried to access any of the links on the bottom of the page they don't work. I tried to look for this listing on the regular desktop version and app and is not there. I also tried using these parts of the link on your website www.airbnb.mx/rooms/ and the listing number 2878128 and your page the only thing it does is to take me to your homepage.

Can you guys verify if this link or posting is real?

Thanks,

Fernando

Hello I see a great number of listings like below that say

(Check this out)!! IMPORTANT !!DO NOT 🅑🅞🅞🅚 , ask about availability dates with my 🅒🅞🅗🅞🅢🅣 that take care of this listing.Any booking made without asking about dates will be cancelled!

Does this mean it’s fake?
