Is there a way to friend guests on FB to verify?

[Victor9]

Hey all, I'm new to hosting and was wondering if there is a way to friend possible guests on FB to verify them. Being my first time, I'm probably being a little paranoid, but I just want to make sure that the people renting are who they say they are. 

Let me know.

Thanks!

I don't think it would be very appropriate, however, if you manage to find them on Facebook, you could always try sending a request.

Thank you guys! You're probably right. I'm going to do what @Clare0 suggested, it seems like a great extra level of verification. Thanks for the thoughts @Ed-and-Hugh0!

@Victor9 I require Airbnb's Verified ID for all my reservations.  You can do this by selecting Reservation Requirements under Manage Listings.  Don't be paranoid....

lol.... Thanks @Clare0! I try not to! I'm going to do what you suggested, I'll activate it now, definitely a great idea.

Thank you @Clare0
