IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING FRAUDULENT SCAMS AFFECTING AESA CONFERENCE ATTENDEES AND EXHIBITORS
There are several different fraudulent scammers that may try to contact you. Please be aware of any unusual contacts and report it to AESA immediately. Most common is:
3rd Party Housing Companies: Please be aware that in the past, housing poachers or unofficial hotel reservation representatives have contacted participants and exhibitors about booking hotel rooms for AESA conferences. THIS IS A SCAM. AESA does not work with 3rd party housing companies and only works directly with the hotels. You should ONLY utilize the reservation link provided in the AESA registration confirmation to make your hotel reservations. Please ignore these pirating emails/calls and we apologize for the inconvenience.
