No Airbnb domain, as you can see here:

be aware of scams !

@Camilo245  When you book a legitimate Airbnb, you are never requested to send the funds. You open an Airbnb account, download all the required info, and book a place. The credit card you have on file with Airbnb is then automatically charged by Airbnb.

You should really read this first before proceeding, I think it would help you.
