AirBnB scam featuring a BP member!
The primary antagonist is a member of BP but he apparently stopped using the site a year ago. This is a long article but has some good information.
I Accidentally Uncovered a Nationwide Scam on Airbnb
I reserved a place through AirBnB last year that also turned out to be a scam. It could have been avoided if AirBnB spent one minute (literally) searching public records to verify home ownership. I got my money back but the scammer walked away, probably to create another fake profile and do it again.
