Global Airbnb Research Group

Hi,

 

This morning I received and email from Wyatt  Hayman inviting me to join this research panel. I am not 100% certain if it is genuine or not, I can see that the mail is from noreply@qemailserver.com which I believe is a genuine Airbnb originator address and I think that the research is being conducted by Qualtric who I know are a genuine MR company. Does anyone know if this is a genuine panel, if it is, I would like to join, but obviously am slightly wary. 

 

Having worked in research myself, I know that we do take over a client database and sent out invites, so nothing unusual there, but I think it is best to be vigilant all the same.

 

Cheers,


Rich

I just got this same email but it seems to be way later than when you did.. Of course i am in America so maybe that is why? Was it a scam for you or whas it real?

I got that too. It seemed legit since the link sent me to a airbnb page where you had to answer some questions

I couldn't believe that email too. That's why I just rejected it. I think everybody needs an explanation about what it is, because, if it's true, I'd be very happy to join. But still, it seems dangerous.

Hi there!
I got the similar one. From wyatt.hayman@airbnb.com but by Monique Little. It looks strange... I'm not certain if it's genuine email and I be able to use that link
Do somebody have the official explanation?

Hi there!
I have wrote an email in Airbnb support. Aileen from the experience team answered me:
"Please be informed that I just received a confirmation that the email that you have received is an official email from Airbnb.
It is your option to answer all the queries presented in the email as we highly appreciate your feedback."

So It's genuine airbnb email

Hi,

 

Now that the research is over, I was wondering about the reward and contacted airbnb support. This was their reply.

 

"Hi Valtteri,

This is Ana from airbnb. Thank you in contacting us about this concern "members get 300 USD after six months of participation." I would like to help you on your concern.

Upon checking this email. We don't support this email address you provided. It seems that Email address doesn't exist on our end. I hope I was able to address your concern.

Thanks,
Ana"
