Rceived unfamiliar emails from Airbnb

Hi,

 

I received a few emails seemingly from Airbnb with details of the change of credit cards, the telephone number is Chinese number and receipts and confirmation of bookings of a place which is unknown to me.

 

Is there a scam going around, disguising as Airbnb?

 

This is really worry me.

@Mike1230 There are many scams, some of which have been discussed here.  If you look at the URL it usually looks different in some way.  Obviously you haven't clicked through anything or responded, but it's always a good idea to go into your account and change the password from time to time.

 

You can also report the email to Airbnb.  Here's all the info - the address for reporting is down near the bottom:  https://www.airbnb.com/help/article/971/how-do-i-know-if-an-email-is-really-from-airbnb
