Throughout the years, our events have been a target for groups trying to offer all types of services from fictitious hotel arrangements to attendee lists, or lead generation devices. 

Grand Strand Gift & Resort Merchandise Show does not sell, rent, or distribute any database lists, nor do we disclose email addresses. Any statements or offers claiming access to attendee lists are fraudulent. If you receive a message from a source outside of Grand Strand Gift & Resort Merchandise Show regarding attendee lists, please do not engage or interact with them. 

Our approved housing vendor is Connections Housing; any other companies are a scam. Emails from Connections will come from giftshows@connectionshousing.com 

Unless an email comes from one of these addresses, it may be a scam, and we ask that you please proceed with caution! If you have any doubts on the authenticity of a communication you have received, please forward it to GrandStrandGift.ES@clarionevents.com and we can confirm for you.
