Warning from Semicon newsletter

The Semicon West show is months away, but they are already sending out exhibitor newsletters. Today's had a link to the following Exhibitor Warning:

"Please be aware that there is a company operating out of Austria, Fairguide.com/Construct Data Verlag (Fairguide) that have been preying upon exhibitors in Europe. Based on recent information, they are now moving into the U.S. market. "
They are apparently sending out exhibitor directory forms that appear to be from the show, then hook you into a $3,000 contract. That's a nasty trick.
