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.

In partnership with the American Bus Association (ABA), a Busworld trade show and conference will be organized in Detroit, Mich. from Feb. 4-7, 2023. The trade show takes place from Feb. 4 to 6, and the conference takes place from Feb. 5 to 7. Busworld is an event that brings together the whole bus industry, including transit bus, school bus, motorcoach and any other type of buses. Although the different sub-sectors have a diverse playground, they still share the same core: Passenger transportation on the road. Therefore a lot of synergies can be found by reaching out cross sector and working all together.

Visiting the Busworld trade show and participating to the conference is free of charge to attract as many people as possible. Tickets are available on the Busworld website.
