Beware of Hotel Booking Scams

It has come to our attention that scammers are targeting our conference attendees and exhibitors, attempting to solicit payment and bookings at unauthorized hotels.  These typically involve calls or emails from people claiming to represent USA Rice or our vendors, encouraging you to make reservations and payments through them.
 
Please be advised that USA Rice and the conference venue (Omni Nashville) will NOT contact you directly to arrange accommodations.  Anyone claiming to do so is not authorized to represent our organization and should be considered fraudulent.  Avoid interaction with them.  Please note, scams have been detected from:

  • Quick Booking / Quick-Bookings
  • Expo-Key
  • Exhibits Booking Media

Legitimate USA Rice Outlook Conference emails will come from: riceinfo@usarice.com and any @usarice.com email address.

How to Book Your Hotel Safely

The only legitimate way to reserve your room is directly with the Hilton New Orleans Riverside.  You can use the official booking link here or call 1-888-444-OMNI and ask for the USA Rice rate.

What to Do If You’re Contacted

If you are contacted or emailed by a third party claiming to have conference hotel information, booking links, special offers, etc., please DO NOT click on any links/attachments or share any personal information with the individual.  Please forward any unauthorized solicitations to USA Rice or let us know if you’ve been contacted via phone call.
 
You should also mark the fraudulent email as Spam or Phishing and inform your company’s IT Department to block the email address within your email system to prevent future emails from being received.
