I received a phone call from someone saying they can offer me a room at a lower rate or at a different hotel. Is this a scam?
It is possible that you may receive phone calls, emails or see websites from unaffiliated organizations and individuals who claim to be acting on behalf of Gartner and offer assistance booking a hotel room for the conference. Please note that Gartner has not authorized them, or anyone else, to contact you on our behalf.
Gartner does not recommend that you do business with them or provide them with your contact or payment information or other personal details. If you choose to do so, you solely assume the risk. A list of known unaffiliated organizations, web sites and individuals may be found here: Fraudulent Hotel Providers.
