BrightonSEO

Stay sharp. Scammers are pretending to be brightonSEO.

We’ve been made aware of some unauthorised emails circulating that appear to come from the brightonSEO team. These emails are currently offering fake “free ticket” passes for our October 2026 event. Unfortunately, they are not genuine and the tickets are not valid. Before you worry, your data is completely safe. We haven’t experienced a data breach, and these scammers are not using our official attendee lists or systems. They’re simply sending mass emails across the industry in the hope that a few people click through.

What to do if you receive one

If you receive a suspicious email offering brightonSEO tickets:

  • delete it straight away
  • mark it as phishing or spam through your email provider
  • don’t click any links or download attachments

If you’ve entered any information into a suspicious website, change your passwords immediately and monitor your accounts closely.

You can also forward any suspicious emails to [email protected] and National Cyber Secutiry Centre will investigate. More information can be found here.
