Real or fake??

Can someone tell me if you think this is real or not?

It seems really low in price.  I emailed the folks off Airbnb and they said they will manually send me a a booking invitation.  

 

Is this real?  

 

Thanks

Doesn't link to anything @Mj61 . 

 

Seems strange that Airbnb would email you a booking invitation.

 

What contact details for them have you been using?

I agree with @Helen3 .  Just because you see "air bnb" does not mean it is legit!

 It looks like they took the link down!  I guess that answers the question.  oh well!  

 

It was a luxury apt that was well below price.  The owner was a superhost, so i thought it would might be real.....and they wanted to email the partner who then said he would email me a booking manually since the calendar was not updated.  But, I just checked the link is gone!  so....I assume this was some fake thing.

 

Thanks!

Ah so it wasn't Airbnb,  but the fake host who said they would email you a link to the booking.

 

Clearly a scam to take the booking off platform. Please report the conversation to Airbnb. @Mj61 

 

As with most things in life when it comes to purchases....if it looks too be good to be true...it is normally is 🙂
