Airbnb has removed a listing after a TikToker went viral claiming her dad's home was mysteriously listed by someone else

• The TikToker @sillysloth66 made a series of videos about her dad's house in California.
• She claimed that someone had broken in and mysteriously listed it on Airbnb while he was out of the country.

A TikTok creator drew alarm last week with a series of videos that claim her dad's home in California was mysteriously listed on Airbnb by someone else as he's been living out of the country.

In response, Airbnb told Insider that it has since taken down the listing and the company investigating the situation.

@sillysloth66 posted the first video about the mystery, which has amassed over 250,000 views, early last week. In the clip, she said her dad's homeowner's association (or HOA) told her that his Aliso Viejo house was listed on Airbnb, which was a violation of the HOA bylaws.

The creator said she was shocked because her dad had been out of the country for two years due to his visa.

"There's no Airbnb allowed in this community," she said in the clip. "They don't have permission from my dad, who's not even here. Who the fuck broke into his house and rented it out on Airbnb?"

Insider located what appeared to be the original listing, although the link no longer works and reroutes the user to the Airbnb homepage. When asked about this, Airbnb confirmed that it pulled the listing down and is investigating claims made in the TikTok.

Insider has made multiple requests for more information from Airbnb.

According to the TikToker in follow-up videos, she received a response from the homestay company after she reported the listing.

"We find that communicating directly with your tenant is the simplest way to address these types of complaints," @sillysloth66 said, reading what appeared to be a screenshot of an email she received.

"Tenant?! What tenant?" she retorted.

The TikToker said she also called the Aliso Viejo police department but claimed police couldn't do much since she doesn't own the property and because it's a civil matter.

Viewers who've been following the saga say they're "deeply invested" in the situation and would keep following it until the end. The creator hasn't posted an update video since late last week.

"This gonna be a Netflix documentary someday," a commenter wrote on one of her most recent update videos.

@Sillysloth66 has not responded to Insider's requests for comment.
