Am I interviewing for the FBI?

[Donna1676]

I have six months to travel and I thought I’d use AirBNB.  But asking for copy of my license, photos of me and my guests AND the last 4 digits of my SS?

 
This makes me worried and suspicious.  Check my credit score if you want confirmation of who I am and how responsible I am.  I get that. That’s common business practice.  

Let the host ask for my license.  That’s enough.  So many hoops.  Such personal information.  Makes me uneasy.  Is that good for business?  I guess I will just use my Marriott free nights.  Tell your shareholders that…

Hi @Donna1676 

It's been a while since I registered on Airbnb, but from hosting others I can see that photos of the guests are optional. Bookings go ahead without them.

Hi @Donna1676 😊

Welcome to the Community Center!

Which country are you planning to travel to?

What do you think of our host advice? Are you still planning to book despite everything?

Warm regards🌻,
