Be careful booking hotels - when we got a room for my grandma's funeral, we called the number listed on the Google business page, Turns out Expedia had hijacked the page and pretended to be the hotel's front desk when I called. Charged us a higher rate than we would've paid had we reached the front desk.
I reported the charge as fraud and my bank is getting me a refund, and I've spoken to the actual hotel to pay them the correct amount directly.
@dramypsyd @Retreival9096 As another person mentioned, the same practice is rampant in food delivery. The delivery companies hijack restaurant links from search engines and Yelp, spoof the ordering process, and prepare the food in their own sweatshop “ghost kitchens”, and keep all the profits without the actual restaurant being involved.
