DON'T BE FOOLED BY FAIR GUIDE/EXPO GUIDE SCAM!

NNECERAPPA Business Partners: Be Aware of Fair Guide/Expo Guide Exhibitor Scams


It has recently come to our attention that Expo Guide S de RL de CV of Mexico (aka the "Fair Guide," product of Construct Data Partners, Slovakia) has been targeting NNECERAPPA Business Partners/Exhibitors requesting company data updates for an online directory.  They are specifically mentioning both NNECERAPPA and APPA. In addition the fraudulent "Expo Guide" is asking for a three (3) year advertisement commitment of $1,717.00 -- or more.  This is a scam!  Please see the attached PDF file of actual fraudulent solicitation.  Expo Guide Scam.


DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS SOLICITATION!


By using a form similar to a Show organizer's free catalog listing with NNECERAPPA's name, this group is offering advertising space on their Fair Guide (www.fairguide.com) and/or Expo Guide (www.expo-guide.com) websites. If an exhibitor signs the advertising agreement, they can be locked into an unfortunate "binding contract" at a significant cost.  If you receive a document with NNECERAPPA's name on it, please read through it, carefully, to confirm it is not a scam!


NNECERAPPA does not have a partner agreement or relationship with Construct Data Verlag AG, Commercial Online Manuals S de RL de CV, Fair Guide, Expo Guide nor any of their other associated brands and/or labels. Please be aware of this recent scam and others.  If you have heard of other scams, please contact NNECERAPPA / Richard Wolbach (BP Contact), right away.  The site, www.stopecg.org, does have information on this specific fraudulent "Expo Guide" -- and other misleading scams.

Thank you very much.
