            SCAMS & SPAM

            BEWARE OF TRAVEL AGENCY SCAMS, ROOM BLOCK & ATTENDEE LIST PIRATES
            If you receive communication from anyone claiming to be associated with a convention housing bureau or travel agency and they offer to secure a hotel room for you, DO NOT provide them with contact or payment information. This is a scam. Information regarding hotel reservations can be found in your annual meeting registration confirmation email. Additionally, if you receive communication from anyone claiming to provide an attendee list, DO NOT engage.
