Scam for property in Dublin Ireland

No where on Airbnb to report this other than the forum

 

Sor for this address, they want you to email them at 

18 Parliament Street Dublin

bookings @ lux-trip . city

 

booking email comes from 

express @ booking-airbnb.space

 

booking-online-property-5173810-4sk08z21.com

 
both domains on whois.com are less than a month old, both registered out of Panama (The Country)
 
This scam was pretty good.  They even have a chat option to use.  The first red flag was they wanted me to wire money to 
HSBC BANK
Account number
IBAN-
GB60Hbuk40086830212180
Swift HBUKGB4B
 
all the other info on the email concerning the wire transfer is irrelevant

re: 'The first red flag'.

Arguably 'The booking email': express @ booking-airbnb.space

 Hi, I got this message from this person. I think it is a scam. I don’t include links that were in the message just in case it’s a scam. Does anybody have anything thoughts on this subject as I have no idea whether it is possible to duplicate account.

Many thanks Frances

 

@Frances146  Just copy the URL of the listing and post it here, not links within the message (I assume you mean an email?) Then others can tell you if it's a scam URL.

And I don't know what you mean by "I don't know if it's possible to duplicate account"?

And how did this person get your contact information?
