Hello, I've been e-mailing with one guy which listed the apartment he owns on other website and sending me pictures of the apartment for a really nice price. Since he owns the apartment, he also send me the address, but moved to Germany (his name suggests so as well since I've been studying German language). But the thing is he wants to rent the apartment for the first 2 months through Airbnb and see how the things will work out. This is how he explained the procedure:
This is a known scam. Airbnb will never establish a meeting to preview the appartment and let you decide if you want to stay. Let them pass the link to the listing on airbnbn, so it can be reported. They probably will sent you a link to an "airbnb-look-a-like" website.
best regards,
Emiel
