From a gmail account?

 

Can't think for a moment why you would think it was only a 'possible' fake.

 

You could go the extra mile and report it as phishing to gmail of course.

Hi @Marin14 Definitely fake as @Bob39 said - forward it on to report.phishing@airbnb.com

You can also report the sender to gmail, as @Elena87 said, it violates google policy & they'll delete the user. For information on what email addresses are used by Airbnb see here:
