HACKED LISTING

HACKED LISTING

This profile has dublicated my listing https://www.airbnb.com/users/show/194247046?_ga=2.268865847.713067063.1591813299-2097860724.15916245...

I contacted airbnb helpdesk , they remove it but it keeps coming back online . Apparently it is a huge hacking attempt as this guy @Altaf has took control of more than 300 listings , especially luxury villas . I make this post in order to help other owners to see if their listing is hacked as well .

@George264 

There was a serious worldwide security breach on Airbnb on Monday 8th June. Hosts were provided access to other hosts dashboards. I wouldn't be surprised if some thought it was their invitation to access the SuperHost fund by taking advantage of changing payment methods. Very likely to be a costly mistake in more ways than one.

Thank you for the information !

Hi there @George264, I can imagine that something like this would take some time investigating. Also, they probably wouldn't give any information out to me about this. 

 

Please do rest assured though as this is being looked after!
