I’m a little concerned that this may be a scam. It looks a little different than what I’m used to seeing but there are a couple similarities. Let me know your thoughts! The reservation is for 2.5 months and the guest has no reviews.
i actually got something similar (earlier today), so i immediately blocked one of the dates to prevent the reservation altogether. I also immediately added the requirement of 'Good Track Record' which effectively blocks her from instant booking because she has no prior trips taken on that account.
I'm getting strong vibes of either a scam or a guest I don't want inside my home.
I don't see a need for video call, because the pictures are already there, the location is verified (by Airbnb), and there are a lot of reviews for the listing. What more do you want?
The guest suspects the "authenticity" of my listing, but tbh I also suspect the authenticity of this guest, seeing as it's new and 0 reviews lol.
Overall, I feel like if the guest is not a good fit, then we should not allow the reservation to happen in the first place. As it's very hard to impossible to cancel a reservation once it's confirmed.
