Exhibitors watch out! Scammers offer visitor lists

We are currently observing that more and more emails are being sent to our exhibitors from fake accounts offering to buy visitor lists for the trade fairs we organize. Some of the emails use our protected trademarks. Do not be irritated by this and do not reply to these emails.

We do not offer visitor lists for sale and do not send any such emails. If you receive such an email, please forward it to us. We will send a warning letter to the sender.

For more information, please visit the website of AUMA (Ausstellungs- und Messe-Ausschuss der Deutschen Wirtschaft e. V.)

Watch out for untrustworthy exhibitor directory offers

We are currently observing that more and more letters are being sent to our exhibitors from publishers of unofficial exhibitor directories offering entries in these sub-standard online directories. However, the letters hide long-term payment obligations in the small print. Don't be irritated by this and do not reply to these letters.

Further information on this and what you should do if you receive such a registration offer can be found on the AUMA website (Ausstellungs- und Messe-Ausschuss der Deutschen Wirtschaft e. V.).
