Non-existent holiday home rental
Are you searching for a holiday home online? Then be on your guard, because fraudsters and scammers are lurking, waiting to trap you with ultra-attractive ads. They might advertise a magnificent villa — great pool and paradise surroundings included. And all for a bargain price.
You grab your chance. You fill in your details and pay immediately. But that idyllic holiday home? It turns out it doesn’t even exist. Unfortunately, you only find that out when you arrive.
Do you want to avoid that scenario? Never pay an owner directly and always go through an official platform that acts as an intermediary.
