Selling information about my property

Hi all,

 

I just sent this off to a couple of places in the AirBnB labyrinth (Is anybody home???).  Don't know if it will register with anyone there, and I'm not sure what to do except reverse-damage control (not really do-able).

 

***********

 

Lizzie?  Quincy?  Anybody?

Help!

I know that policies at AirBnB change all the time, but I JUST found out that my ENTIRE AirBnB listing is on the internet.  Pictures, my description of the most incredible place I live in…

 

Dang it... I don't do "Social Media" because it's a stupid revealing of whatever you are doing--to the general public. 

This is horrifying, and from a security stand-point, a little more than awful.  Great.  Now anyone can see most of the inside/outside of my HOME, WITH MY ADDRESS, on the internet.  (Read this:  REALLY, REALLY UNHAPPY.)

For me, this format was a SCREEN. I show my home and my story to an audience from wich I can choose to invite. 

 

It's not AirBnB now, it's anyone.  Photos inside, outside, address... square footage... what a mess.

 

This is a big deal.

 

It now comes up--ALL OF IT--on just about every real estate agent office website.

I would NEVER have checked off:  "YES, WE WILL SHARE ALL OF YOUR INFORMATION WITH ANYONE WHO WANTS IT" box.  I did NOT DO THIS.

OK, so we can’t un-do this, but will you please KNOCK THIS OFF, and also confirm by either email or phone that you have STOPPED THIS?????

Severely pissed off—and I want an APOLOGY,

SAY YOU’RE SORRY AND STOP IT!

 

Not sure I've ever been so mad at a company I believed in so much.

Do you have enabled options in the privacy settings of your account ?

Like the "Your Listings and Profile in Search Engines" ?

Hi @Emiel1, yes I finally got to that button.

 

My big beef is with Corporate... just curious if anyone else has had their house and whatever other information SOLD to the public.  (Hehehe... you can tell... I'm still pretty pissed.)

 

Thanks for your help, Emiel.

 

Best,

@Emiel1,  Your help was great, and this is not a resolved problem. 

 

Where are Lizzie and Quincy?

 

Best,

 

Kim
