Scam! I was too contacted by two different profiles on LinkedIn to attend a star conference in Rome. Both profiles didn’t seem to belong to a real person. The description of the conference did not make sense, nor does their website. They immediately ask you to pay a fee. It’s a scam!

As an experienced international speaker - This is a scam! I was approached to speak at their conference recently. On probing for details, I was sent a link. It quickly became apparent to me that this was a scam. I asked questions about speaker fees which is commonly understood terminology for how much a speaker gets paid. They got back with early bird discounts after which I understood that they were asking speakers to pay them ( a huge amount imho) to speak. Please be vary. Leading conferences usually are well recognized. I do not want to say more here as they may change their modus operandi based on what I’ve shared. Please do not engage; this is a fake conference without credentials. An event management company only executes on behalf of someone else. So there is nothing here for you as a speaker. Even if the conference does go ahead - what is it really? Please ask yourself some questions and research. Having spoken at many conferences, I was quick to spot the signs - This is a scam!

Hello Hello, I was invited to Speak at one of their conferences in Paris. They chased and chased and chased me to register and make the payment. My life circumstances changed and I was unable to make it. I notified them over 3 months prior to the program dates and requested a refund. As should be the professional thing to do. I have yet to receive a refund let alone a response. They have pretty much ghosted me. January 5th, 2023: Update - as you can see below, they responded to my review and asked that I email them. Which I did right away, and again no response. January 8th, 2023: Update - Please note that I have sent multiple emails to said email address. If you are truly committed to correcting this, please resolve it. Otherwise please stop wasting my time any further.

At the Global Summit Mental health and… At the Global Summit on Mental health and Psychology Expo held in the beautiful city of Paris, France It was a great pleasure to meet a lot of friends and collaborators from around the world. An honor to give the opening Plenary talk and chair a session in this very interesting event. A great thanks to my friends, Professor S, and other organizing committee members of STAR Conferences for the invitation and their great hospitality. It was also a pleasure to meet in this meeting various collaborators, Ph.D. students, and Postdocs, who have been members of Psychology, and Mental Health Experts in Paris, France.

Good Best" is a bit woolly for Star Conference but I'll have a stab at it from my perspective. It was about breast cancer; or some particular variant of breast cancer, in which case how you define "best" might vary on your interests. A rare disease however might only have one international meeting a year to which everybody comes. so long as it is somewhere you can learn and network, I will give a 5 star. It was a worthy experience and will look for more such events to attend in future.
