Third-Party Hotel, Supply & List Scams

Please note: AXPONA and its official vendors do not sell attendee lists.

Events, including AXPONA, have been the target of groups trying to take advantage of Expo participants by offering all types of services including hotel offerings, attendee list rental, lead generation services, etc. Scammers do an excellent job of making themselves look like an approved vendor for AXPONA. Please be vigilant when solicited for services from third parties. AXPONA’s official vendors are listed in the Exhibitor Manual.

If you have any questions, check with the AXPONA team before contracting for any services.
