The tax man knows if you're being dodgy about declaring Airbnb biz

Even the taxman has the internet, so it's best not to hide all that cash you earned on Airbnb.

To help hosts figure out the confusing world of taxation, Airbnb has teamed up with accountanting firm H&R Block in Australia. As well as discounted services, H&R Block will offer users of the home and room rental service educational materials and tips for ensuring their taxes are done right.

Announced in November, and first reported by Fairfax Media Monday, the Australian program follows a similar initiative in the U.S. that began in January.
