AIRBNB Locking Host Calendars

What are other hosts seeing regarding this sudden URGENT message that simultaneously locks your hosting calendar?    Popped up on my account today,  following a superhost notice.   

 

There was no prior email explaining what was going to be requested and why. 

 

We thought it was a scam and collection of unnecessary information. 

 

Has anyone else seen these messages asking for Citizenship, Country of Birth, etc?

Hello @Susan3854 

 

Can you post the screen shot of this urgent message as it's impossible to comment without it I think?

@Susan3854 

Just a guess, but Airbnb has been asking Hosts to re-verify their identities and if you don't, you calendar will be blocked until you do. You should have seen this warning on the traveling side of your profile. 

 

That said, I would contact Airbnb yourself and ask about the email before clicking any links:
