HOTEL HOUSING SCAM ALERT
 
WARNING Regarding Unauthorized Contacts by Companies Offering to Book Your Hotel Reservations
If you are contacted by Global Housing Corp., Exhibition Housing Services, Convention Expo Travel (CET), BookMyRooms.com, or anyone claiming to book hotel rooms or travel on behalf of AACCI, DO NOT book your travel or hotel reservations with any caller or email claiming to represent AACCI. AACCI does not authorize outside booking agents for any AACCI meetings. These companies may be offering hotel rates that are above/below the AACCI-discounted convention rates published on the AACCI Annual Meeting website. No one can book hotel rooms at rates lower than AACCI-contracted rates over AACCI Annual Meeting dates at the AACCI-designated hotels.

Many of these organizations ask for full payment upfront. Please also be advised that once you sign any agreements (i.e., credit card authorization forms), AACCI cannot guarantee that you will get your money back. Be aware that reservations booked through these companies may not be honored by the AACCI-contracted hotels and AACCI will not guarantee these reservations. If you have been contacted by any housing service company, or if you have any questions/concerns, please contact AACCI here or call +1.651.454.7250.
