It's really horrible that happened to this guy. It's not really AirBNB's fault but I am happy to hear they are helping him out regardless.

Letting someone into your home should be a rather big deal. Just because some website vouches for a person doesn't mean you shouldn't do some checking up of your own.

It's sort of like Craigslist. Beware and assess the risks carefully!
