After booking and paying and receiving a receipt from the host, for four days before check in I was bombarded with emails telling me I had to provide ( upload) proof of payment, a copy of my credit card both sides, a copy of my bank statement verifying payment and a copy of my drivers licence both sides.
Eventually the host rang me and harassed me for this info. I said there was no way I was uploading this and after a heated conversation, she hung up.
This was very off putting and I was worried about a scam.
They had my money, they issued a receipt , so why all this bother?
