I booked all my accommodations to Vietnam with Booking but now I’m getting some messages on WhatsApp asking me to confirm my reservation or it will be cancelled. Are they scammers trying to get personal info? I’ve replied to them to contact me via Booking only and I have blocked them. Anybody experienced this issue??

Me! I contacted the accomodation via Booking and they said it is a scam. Delete it and don’t click on links. Booking doesn’t pass on phone numbers so unless you exchanged it yourself (via Booking) it is not your accomodation!
It’s a scam I just got one from a cancelled reservation
Yep its a scam. I got the same thing
Yes. Tonight. Is it a scam?.How do they have my dates?
same here!!
I also received a whatsapp from a hotel in ninh binh, asking me to click on a link to confirm my booking. That’s got scam written all over it.
I have received two messages in the last few days both from a very different names, both with all my booking details and asking me to click a payment link even though I have already paid in full
Yep I got the same thing 2 days ago. They are on a run with this! Scam
I had that last year. I responded to them on what’s app. Never had an issue. It’s a lot easier for them to communicate on WhatsApp rather than apps like booking or Airbnb
It’s normal the homestay they contact by WhatsApp just to confirm if you arrive or not because booking policy there is no advance payment. By the way if you are often check booking sms then it’s best way to communicate on booking
