I’ve been an Airbnb host for about a year. I recently put our listing up on Vrbo as well . I received two different customers for a month long stay but messages sent are blocked? The thread says “this message did not comply with Vrbo terms and conditions’  Is VRBO preventing a scam? I’ve never seen this as an Airbnb host.
