Beware of unauthorized registration, housing, and data solicitation scams.
The Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) has been made aware of unauthorized companies and individuals contacting Congress attendees, exhibitors, and sponsors with offers related to event registration, hotel accommodations, and attendee or membership lists. These organizations are not affiliated with SCCM or the Critical Care Congress, and their offers may be fraudulent.
To protect your personal information and ensure valid transactions, use only official SCCM channels for registration, housing reservations, and list rental opportunities. Unauthorized companies may falsely imply an affiliation with SCCM by using similar domain names, branding, or website designs. SCCM does not share attendee email addresses with these organizations and has not authorized their communications.
Registration: Attendees can register for Congress only through the link provided on SCCM’s Congress registration web page. SCCM and its authorized partners will not contact attendees with unsolicited registration offers.
Housing: Attendees are strongly encouraged to make hotel reservations only through the SCCM Housing Bureau, managed by Orchid Events, or directly through a hotel website. SCCM’s official housing partner, Orchid Events, is the only authorized provider for Congress hotel reservations and will not contact attendees directly with unsolicited hotel offers.
List Rental: The only way to secure an SCCM membership or event attendee list is directly through SCCM. List rentals are limited to postal mailing lists and will never include attendee or membership email addresses. Learn more.
Participating in unauthorized transactions may result in identity theft, invalid event registration, unconfirmed hotel reservations, financial loss, or misuse of personal information. If you receive a communication and would like to verify its legitimacy, please contact SCCM Customer Service at +1 847 827-6888 or support@sccm.org.
