Midwest Solar Expo has been the target of groups that offer a variety of fraudulent services that include (but are not limited to) travel, advertising, and data services. Many of our customers have reported that these groups – who are NOT our official vendors – fail to deliver on their promises to provide hotel reservations, advertising, or accurate data, then refuse to grant refunds. Some of these groups engage in illegal phishing practices or embed malware in their messages that could (if clicked) infect/hack your company’s systems.

We strongly advise that you do not click on any links from emails or groups that look suspicious and always check our official vendor list before contracting with anyone. If you suspect that you have been contacted by a fraudulent vendor or have any questions, please contact us.

Please note that Midwest Solar Expo and its official vendors DO NOT sell attendee lists under any circumstance. Companies or groups offering such lists are not affiliated with Midwest Solar Expo in any way and cannot possibly have accurate attendee data. Buyers should beware!
