Hello all,
I'm in a bit of a situation as well. I stayed in an apartment Airbnb and just stayed for the night and left the next afternoon. I picked the place because it was cheap: it was a new listing and offered a discount for the first few stays.
Four days after my stay, I am surprised by a $550 request for a "stolen winter jacket." Her message was very accusatory saying she just got home and saw that her winter jacket was missing. She said she offered me her place for a one night stay for a reasonable price and the result is "this...." She then said that she paid $550 for her jacket 3 months ago.
I did NOT take ANYTHING from her apartment and I'm baffled that I'm being accused of doing so.
I didn't take any photographs of the place, however, she still has not shown any proof of the theft nor has provided any evidence that her "stolen" jacket costs $550.
She also mentioned that she hired a maid to clean so I wasn't the last person to see the room before the host came to the room.
What do you think might happen to my case?
