There is a fake C++ conference website wanting your credit card data. The location of the event is for now Berlin in June, but could change again. Its been Japan last year. Tickets are 30 - 50 €, the program does not contain any known speakers. I'm not going to link to it. I thought I let you know.
I've reached out to the listed sponsors I have contacts for.

@meetingcpp@mastodon.online I've been invited to several fake conferences. They offered to be expenses-paid, but their topics were strangely generic, the invitation was sycophantic, there were prior fees (which I think was the whole point). These had the peculiarity that they were allegedly in two parts, weeks apart and in different countries.
