Exhibitor Warning

Informa Markets is continually working to reduce the risk to our customers of fraudulent activity. As such, we wanted to draw your attention to a third party company operating under the name of ‘UBM (Decorex) Ltd’, which is targeting current and potential exhibitors by falsely purporting to sell discounted stands into Decorex 2020. ‘UBM (Decorex) Ltd’ is not in any way affiliated with Informa Markets or the wider Informa Group.

There have been instances of companies 'selling' Decorex Attendee Data. Informa Markets and Decorex International never sell data. Please report any instances to the Decorex team: [email protected]

Receiving fraudulent emails: 
Please make sure to verify the email addresses both in the ‘From’ address field and in the ‘Reply-to’ address field (which will become visible when you reply to an email). Typically, fraudsters will use fake email addresses in one or both of these address fields and can use other sophisticated techniques.

WARNING - EXPO GUIDE, EXPOFAIRS, FAIRGUIDE.COM, CONSTRUCT DATA VERLAG & INSIDE DATA VIEW
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES SIGN ANY FORMS FROM THEM

Expo Guide/ExpoFairs/International Fairs Directory/FairGuide.com/Construct Data Verlag/ Inside Data View target companies through legitimate exhibition guides or data selling. Their current activities cover companies throughout Europe, the Americas and Asia.

Expo Guide claims to offer online listing services. They use a form which resembles an organiser's free catalogue listing service, inviting exhibitors to complete the form for an entry in an on-line directory. Unsuspecting exhibitors who sign and return the form are then contracted into a three-year, non-retractable agreement, which could cost you a significant amount of money, with no foreseeable benefits. Included in their group is debt collection agency Gravis Inkasso Gmbh and Swiss debt collection agency Premium Recovery AG (a Construct Data subsidiary) which works in partnership with the various guides to intimidate exhibitors into paying. 

These publications have no connection with us or any of our events. We strongly advise our exhibitors, and the entire exhibition community, to be most vigilant against this and similar organisations. There are many so-called guides that mail deceptive contracts and then harass those who sign them in error for money. However, the sheer scale and systematic way in which these guides attack exhibitors is outrageous.

Additional information on the Expo-Guide, ExpoFairs, FairGuide and other Construct Data Verlag publications is available at: www.aeo.org.uk/expoguide
