I was contacted by a housing provider that offered to assist with making my Future of Beverage hotel reservation. What should I do?

These companies will offer to make hotel reservations within the room block on your behalf or misrepresent themselves as agents of the hotel. Please note that Future of Beverage does not rent, share, or sell your contact information to any third parties.
