Presents as an OCaml/Haskell/FP conference. However:
- The event is not listed on the venue’s official schedule: https://www.javitscenter.com/calendar
- The funcp.org domain was registered two weeks ago, yet the oldest blog posts are dated from April: https://rdap.org/domain/funcp.org
- The domain has no email routing — the contact addresses cannot receive mail:
funcp.org Domain Health - Registration routes payment off-site to a third-party platform (gomry.com), with a $149+ ticket.
- Listed speakers or organisers don’t seem to have any track record in our community
- Talk’s topics don’t stand scrutiny
- Claims to be a second edition, but I can’t find a prior edition
If you registered, I suggest cancelling and getting your money back.
This has been reported to the OCaml and Haskell security teams, the Javits Center, Google Safe Browsing, Cloudflare, dev.events (which lists the conference), and Gomry (the payment platform).
Thanks to @adrien, @mtelvers and @edwin, who helped disclose this.
