We have been made aware by a delegate that they have received an email from a company called Global Travel Experts (support@gtravelhosting[dot]com).

This company is not in any way affiliated with BMJ and IHI or related to the International Forum on Quality and Safety in Healthcare Hong Kong 2024.

Please do not respond to those messages or provide them with any of your personal details. We believe it is a scam.

If possible, we recommend blocking the sender Global Travel via support@gtravelhosting[dot]com, planning@gtravelhosting[dot]com, reservations@gtravelhosting[dot]com, bookings@gtravelservices[dot]com.

If you receive an email from this company or anything similar, mark it as spam and delete it immediately.
