• Claim to be affiliated with the host hotel or ABMA by offering discounted hotel rates, which often can be too good to be true.
• Ask you to provide your contact information and credit card details, and require full pre-payment in advance.
• Claim to have availability at their advertised hotels, but may take the money for the rooms, then later cancel without refund to you.
