Beware of Hotel Reservation Scam!
A company called "Exhibition Housing Management," "Conventioneers, LLC," or some variation has been in contact with exhibitors and registrants about securing housing through them.
THIS IS A SCAM!! If someone contacts you about this, do not give them your credit card information. They are not authorized to take hotel reservations. Reservations can only be made directly through the website or by calling the Hilton Baltimore Hotel.
