Is there a problem with IT security at Airbnb?
People I have no connection to and no knowledge of have had access to me listing and account. I was not notified by Airbnb that these transaction was taking place. I have 3 questions to Airbnb IT security:
Why is there a message to William at my message board?
Why did Airbnb payout to a foreign bank account when there was no rent income at my account?
How could a person named Brandon McKee add a bank account to my listing?
Why did I not get any notification that another bank account or credit card was added to my listing?
Please se the photos attached.
I hope I can get an answer from Airbnb.
Best regards
Marie

it is very weird.
This person (seems to) have spent the Christmas days (2018) in you accommodation, the payout is transferred to another bankaccount, and 1499,- Euro has been sent for damage.
But is in 2018, why did you notice it now in 2021 ?
Or it is a technical glitch or the account is abused for ??

I didn't notice before now, because I was not active on Airbnb for several years. This year in July I rented my summerhouse out for a week. Afterwards I didn't get the rent transferred. I wrote to ask Airbnb why, and was told I owed Airbnb money because there was this transfer in dollars to someone called Brandon from my account. I tried to find out what had happened, and then I found out about this message to a person (which seemed to be a person in Turkey) at my message board in my Airbnb account. And that a bank account had been added in December 2018. But I never got any warning or notifications from Airbnb when it happened, I think it must be a technical error in the Airbnb system. I worry about the safety, if I should decide to use Airbnb again, which obviously depends on if we get this sorted out.
