Please be alert to fraudulent emails and calls

Scammers may impersonate the Foundation Support Team and include details such as your booth number, our logo, or familiar signature blocks to make their messages appear legitimate. Having those details does not mean the message came from us. Please keep these reminders in mind:

  • We do not call you to book hotel rooms or register you.
  • iaedp does not sell its attendee list. We provide it to all exhibitors, excluding attendees who opt out, shortly after the early bird deadline and again after the Symposium. Offers to sell you our attendee list are not from or authorized by iaedp. Plain and simple, they are fraudulent – don’t be taken in.
  • If you receive an email asking you to change payment information or use new payment instructions, please call us directly at 800-800-8126 x4 to confirm. Do not reply to that email to verify the request.
