Hi @Tere3085 

 

How are you? 
It’s smart to be cautious about booking outside Airbnb because it exposes you to risks like scams, property damage, and lack of support.

 

I will politely declined. Respond firmly but politely, explaining that you only manage bookings through Airbnb for everyone’s safety.

 

I use this template:

Thank you for your interest in my property! For safety and transparency, I only accept bookings through Airbnb. This ensures protection for both of us. Let me know if you have any questions about the platform or the listing!

 

If you suspect the person is trying to scam you or persistently insists on booking outside the platform, report the message to Airbnb.

 

Hope this helps
