Several hosts have posted recently about being hacked, and I've been getting more emails than usual from friends reporting hacked Instagram and Facebook accounts. Nerve-wracking!
It seemed a good time to look into things, so I went to Account -> Login & Security, and checked out my device history. All looked good. (You can also click this link: https://www.airbnb.com/review_your_account.)
To the right of Login & Security, there's a box that says "Your account security: Medium," so I clicked through to see what could be improved. It asks to verify your phone number by sending a code. But I kept getting a message from @Airbnb saying "We can't send a code to this phone number. Try using a different one." It's a US cell phone number. I get codes sent to it all the time. How can I improve my account security if Airbnb can't do its part?
Though it's a small thing, it really makes me wonder how secure our accounts really are.
