**A Continual Reminder – Be Aware of Housing Poachers & Data Scammers!**

Poachers and scammers are constantly posing as official representatives of the Underground Infrastructure Conference (UIC) to sell unofficial attendee data lists and solicit hotel reservations. These companies are unrelenting and are known to constantly change their company and domain names… and so, without regard to specific names, beware of ANYONE soliciting on behalf of UIC.

Go straight to the source…The only truly authorized information concerning UIC will come directly from UIC show management and will be accessible through the show’s website and, if you’re an exhibitor, within the show contractor’s website.

We partner with the hotel directly – not any travel companies whatsoever. If you are contacted by anyone regarding the rooms in our block, please be aware they ARE NOT associated with our company or events. If you are contacted by anyone else, know that they are poachers and should be ignored. 

Gulf Energy Information/UIC will not provide the hotel with your contact information, nor do we have control over the type of accommodations, rates charged, or whether you will have a room if you deal with unauthorized companies or people.

The ONLY way to be certain about your hotel accommodations for our conference is to book directly with the hotels when the links are posted.
