It's a high-touch business but more and more that touch is someone to tell a traveler that the scammer that took their money gets to keep their money.

- jrockway 7y agoI would imagine that most AirBnB scams are in the other direction -- travellers defrauding property managers. If you are just a customer and you don't like the experience, you simply tell your credit card company that you aren't going to pay for it and the problem is solved on your end. Meanwhile, if you manage the property people can consume nights of service and end up not paying, and you're never getting that back. I am sure there are horror stories where people didn't like their AirBnB, but I am also sure they didn't pay for that AirBnB.
