Greetings to all,
as you may see in the screenshot attached I got this weird message. I smell scam but I replied as if it was a normal person.
Another indicator that this is might be a scam is that the profile was made on 2024 and hasn’t done any trips yet.
Did anyone else got this message as well ?
UPDATE : I reported the account as scam on Airbnb will update further
Hi spiros50
That's smart and one need to be cautious with so many digital frauds happening.
That's helpful.
I haven't got such message but yes
Manier times people who enquire are quite old in terms of account but no trips
Ps - I generally suggest to get a Identity proof or LinkedIn Profile
Regards
Vikram
Greetings Vikram
thank you for your reply and your insight. I would strongly suggest not to ask proof from a third party website due to the fact that he already sent me a link that may be a scam so they might try to sent another fake link.
Not to pat my hand on my shoulder but the last review I got was a five stars one and generally I’m on 4,98 with 83 reviews so asking about a recent bad review that’s not there and asking me to check on a site outside of Airbnb it’s a red flag. Even if there is a bad review on another website it’s not my concern because it’s not visible while reviewing my listing.
Although your method of cross referencing is valid I believe that Airbnb has all the necessary information to validate a proper profile on users and anything that happens outside Airbnb site is not covered by them.
So far he hasn’t reply to my response
Kind Regards ,
Spiros
