Mailing lists: There are a number of emails doing the rounds offering visitor/buyer lists for sale for pre-show/post-show mailings. We have seen 30+ versions of these, including, tradeconference.info, trbusinesleads.com, expo-emaillist.com, iCert Global, Speed Event List, Global List and Ocean Business Zonal Trade. These are not genuine offers. The data belongs to the show/showroom organisers and would not be shared with a third party organisation in this way. Do not respond to these emails.

Government funding: Fashion and Textile brands are being approached with a suggestion that they are eligible for government funding schemes, but to get this, you have to lodge funds on a new pre-paid credit card.

Please do not respond to these emails, contact UKFT if you have been approached. Email laurian.davies@ukft.org  or call us on 020 7843 9460.
