    Speaking from painful experience, you will find that it’s most probably that ‘Booking’ is the ‘Scammer’

    I got one too for the first time recently. I’ve been using Booking for a very long time so I just ignored it. Plus my accommodation has already been paid for and confirmed, why would they need card details now!!

    I’ve just had it through Expedia – sent on what’s app and stupidly entered my credit card details – was in the airport and not thinking straight.

    We had one booking that request is to transfer 50% deposit directly to their bank account. We cancelled the booking immediately.
