Unfortunately it is common for exhibitors and sponsors to be targeted by scammers in the run-up to events and MPTS is no exception. These scams can take a variety of forms, with scammers claiming, amongst other things, to be selling show visitor data, directory listings, advertising and hotel bookings. They often claim to be official contractors or even to be directly from the organising team, often using official branding and logos.
We ask exhibitors to be vigilant and to be aware of the potential risks. You can always find a list of our approved contractors within our ezone, so please refer to this list if you are unsure. If you are still unsure, please contact the MPTS team directly so we can advise you. Any scams you do receive, please also forward them onto us so they can be logged and to allow us to make others aware of them.
It’s important to note that we do not sell our exhibitor or visitor data to any third parties; anyone not on our approved contractor list contacting you claiming to sell these services has not received your details from us.
