They could, but realistically, it's not worth it for them. Worst case they're out a couple million, and that's only if the guests complain and request refunds.

They could, but realistically, it's not worth it for them. Worst case they're out a couple million, and that's only if the guests complain and request refunds. Litigation would cost more than that. AirBnB's legal department has their hands full just getting sued by local municipalities that want to outlaw it entirely; they don't have time to go after small-time fraudulent landlords who can just be booted off the platform.
