The Association of Event Organisers (AEO) have released a guide for protecting you from scammers.

Trade shows are not immune from scammers and exhibitors at trade shows can represent an attractive target for scammers, who harvest data from public websites and directories and pretend to represent the organiser of the event, or companies associated with the event. 

We want you to enjoy your exhibition experience, to be alert and to protect yourself and your company from potential scams. In this short video, the AEO explain the type of scams you should look out for, what makes something look suspicious and what to do if you are a victim of scamming.

Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us if you are in doubt about any communication you receive regarding your participation at the show.
