BE CAREFUL to use AirBnb Website

WARNING TO POTENTIAL USE OF AirBnb website - Please note that booking on AirBnb poses a risk as ********** have duplicated the exact website for bookings with unknowingly guest making bookings thinking that they are dealing with AirBnb but in fact are dealing with a **** on a duplicated website which is identical to the real AirBnb site - Unfortunately guest are loosing thousands of rands paying over deposits and booking monies and then sit with nothing . My daughter was almost a victim today, luckily we managed to stop the funds reaching the ********** parties bank account . It is not the fault of the real AirBnb but are they also not very sympathetic if this happens just mentioning that there is nothing they can do -Long story but be careful to make bookings via AirBnb website , make sure you deal with the real AirBnb and not ********** !!
