What happened
W Osaka, a Marriott property, has warned guests about scammers advertising a fake "Social Media Creator Program" or "Ambassadorship." The scam involves individuals signing up and paying fees or providing personal information for free stays and perks that do not exist. The hotel advises guests to only engage with programs posted on official property channels (Instagram, Facebook, website) and to avoid pay-to-play schemes or those requesting sensitive data beyond a social media profile description. This is relevant for Marriott Bonvoy members planning stays at W Osaka or other lifestyle brands like Moxy and Aloft
