Whenever there's money on the internet, there are people who want to steal it. And sadly, Shireen Heidari, MD, has just experienced it firsthand.
One day, the doctor at the Stanford Department of Medicine in California saw her home listed as a rental on Airbnb by some random person. Without her knowledge.

When Heidari contacted the scammer, they even had the nerve to ask if she wanted to rent out the place she owns and lives in. But reporting the issue didn't help at first either — Airbnb proved that its customer service isn't up to par.
Looking for moral support, Heidari described the whole ordeal on Twitter, and apparently, stuff like this happens all the time as many people replied with similar stories of their own.
