    Visitors to the site who are interested in booking your property can contact you using the information you provide on your listing (telephone, email, or fax).

    How do I know I am receiving all my inquiries?
    To protect you against spam, Internet Service Providers (ISP's) can block emails without you or us knowing about it. Check the Inquiries tab on your Owner's home page to see all email inquiries sent to you by Escape Rental, and add Escape Rental to your email address book to ensure you receive communications from us.

    What if the person making the inquiry puts in the wrong details?
    Unfortunately there is nothing we can do if a traveler enters their contact information incorrectly. Experience shows that renters sometimes are not complete in their requests. The best thing to do is to contact them and get all the information that you might need to address their request.

    How can I tell if the inquiry is genuine?
    The vast majority of visitors to EscapeRental.com are genuine people looking for a vacation home. However, if you are not comfortable with the traveler after corresponding with them, do not take the booking. Never pay out money to a potential guest until you are absolutely sure you have secured the funds, it is a scam used by professionals. Always be suspicious when a renter tells you that he will pay you more money that the rental is offered for. If the renter is requesting you to send back part of the overpayment because of whatever reason, be cautious. This is a typical fraud scheme.
