I was similarly baited on the Chase credit card travel site. Bought a few nights at what was advertised as a Hilton in Miami but on the day of got instructions that made it clear we weren't staying at a Hilton. Turned out to be a vacation rental in a condo in the same building as the Hilton. The listing on the chase travel site used a similar name as the Hilton (neither the real or fake actually use the word "Hilton" in their names), same address, same photos (pool, restaurant, front desk, rooms, etc), and even figured out a way to list the reviews for the Hilton in it's listing.
Ultimately we stayed elsewhere because the condos were flop houses. Chase didn't have any interest in helping us or making it right after dozens of calls and hours of conversations. As far as I can tell the "properties" have all been removed. (There were similar listings for other name chain hotels like the W chain)
