There are always exhibitors offering legitimate drawings for things. I signed up at a booth which appeared to be selling cruise info. I realized what I was in fact doing was putting myself on their mailing list, but such is the price of entry. However, Monday evening I get a call from some "bubbly" telemarketer telling me I'd won a cruise ... I was beginning to get a little suspicious because it appeared to be scripted. Sure enough, to "claim" my prize I'd have to pay a processing fee. I hung up.

I can understand the EAA needs the bucks so they can sell the space to the medical device rackets and the not available in store frying pan demos, but to actively allow a criminal fraud scam to operate in a booth in the exhibit hall is unconscionable.
