Scammers use phone soliciting, regular mail and email, appearing legit to trick you into sending money to them, enter into costly contracts, and/or reveal personal information.
Such scams and misrepresentation of services are common to all trade shows, so please remain diligent!
As in past years, exhibitors are being contacted by companies "appearing" to represent the Vancouver Boat Show while soliciting hotel reservations or exhibitor listing information when, in fact, they are in no way associated with the boat show.
At a glance, here is what you need to know:
- Partner boat show hotels will be announced in a future newsletter and on VancouverBoatShow.ca. None will contact you directly, and no third-party suppliers are affiliated with the Vancouver Boat Show.
- Advertising contacts for the Official Vancouver Boat Show Guide will be provided in a future newsletter and posted in the Exhibitor Kit on VancouverBoatShow.ca. No other listings or guides are approved by, or affiliated with, the show.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact show manager Eric Nicholl (604-882-8024).
