Does Airbnb pay you to report scams?

A friend of mine recently done research on an Airbnb she booked and found out that the host didn't have permission to sublet her apartment. She reported it and got a refund plus $50. She found another person on Airbnb doing the same thing. So would she get rewarded for reporting the scam or would she not

@Jennifer3233 No, there's not a cash reward for reporting listings. Sometimes when Airbnb cancels your booking, it supplies a credit to apply toward another stay. But they're not hiring trophy hunters.
