BEWARE: ABA Marketplace Scams

We want to bring to your immediate attention a concerning issue that has arisen in the last few days. There has been an increasing number of scam calls targeting our members and Marketplace registrants regarding hotel reservations.

 

Important Details:

Scam Activity: The most prolific scam call is coming from 800-878-0113 from an individual named "Joseph." This caller is falsely claiming to offer an early bird rate for hotel stays in Philadelphia.

Our Process: ABA will be opening up hotel reservations on August 9, and we are not using any third-party affiliate to call you about those reservations, secure "special" low rates, or other offers. These calls are scams.

 

Action Steps

Do Not Engage: If you receive such a call from 800-878-0113 or other unfamiliar number, we suggest blocking the number to remove further contact from the scammer.

Official Reservations: The only way to secure your hotel reservations is through ABA and the Marketplace website. Information on how to make reservations will be posted on August 9, and we will send out a notice to all current registered attendees with information on how to secure your hotel booking.

 

ABA is committed to ensuring your safety and the security of your information. Please remain vigilant and do not engage with these fraudulent calls. If you have any questions or need further assistance, do not hesitate to contact us directly at (800) 283-2877.

Have You Had Maintenance Issues Because of Emissions-related Reduction and Control Devices? Tell Us About It!


ABA, IMG, UMA and the Bus Maintenance & Repair Council (BusMARC) are soliciting your input on your experiences with maintenance issues due to emissions-related reduction and control devices.

We would like to study the continued need for progressive derate inducements associated with low-volume or empty Diesel Emission Fluid (DEF) tanks, the use of poor-quality DEF product, and/or a fault in the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system. Frequently a derate situation results in diminished engine performance, a loss of torque or a forced regeneration.

Please complete the following survey by June 30. Your participation is greatly appreciated.

Click here for the survey. (Note: if you are a member of more than one of these associations, please fill out the survey only once.)

All responses will be kept strictly confidential and there will be no reference to specific company names. Thank you in advance for your input on this important safety and environmental regulation for our industry.

We would also invite you to join us for a webinar session on July 1 at 11 a.m. ET to discuss this and other common over-the road breakdowns, and commons solutions that OEMs and operators have found.
