i do not think if you type and go to booking.com that your web browser will take you to a fake site. however, you there have been some reports that some listings about places for rent were scams.
With how critically important one's passport is, and especially for folks in this region with the visa and extension stamps contained in them, I'm amazed at people handing over their passports, allowing them out of their possession.
At various tourist spots in Thailand, I didn't have much of a problem finding a bike rental place that would take a copy and not the real thing. I didn't and wouldn't rent a bike from ones that insisted on taking possession of the passport.
OK, that may not fly in Laos, and if the rental places are demanding a deposit worth the value of the bike, that's a no go.
