🚨 PLEASE BE CAREFUL WITH SUPER CHEAP AIRBNB OFFERS.
As an Airbnb host, I’ve actually experienced having photos of my own units stolen and used by scammers to create fake listings.
They use the actual photos of the condo, copy the details, and sometimes offer a very low price to make the deal look attractive. Since the photos are real, it can be easy to believe that the listing is legit.
So if you see an Airbnb for ₱900–₱1,000/night, especially if the price seems unusually low for the location, PLEASE take a few minutes to verify first. 🥺
Before sending any payment:
✔️ Check if the listing/host is legitimate
✔️ Check the reviews and account history
✔️ Verify the exact location and unit
✔️ Ask for proof that they actually manage the property
✔️ Be careful with offers coming from random Facebook accounts
✔️ Never rush just because they say someone else is about to book the dates
And most importantly, don’t assume that the photos are proof that the person is the actual owner or host. Scammers can easily use real photos from legitimate Airbnb listings.
I’m sharing this not to discourage anyone from booking budget accommodations, but to remind everyone to book smart and protect your hard-earned money. ❤️
If you’re looking for a budget Airbnb, please do your research first. A cheap deal is never worth losing your money over.
