Official Statement Regarding the Recent Security Concerns

Recently there have been a series of posts and messages regarding an individual that has made comments on some internet social networks.

Dragon*Con is aware of the issue, and we are not taking it lightly. The proper authorities have been contacted, and they are working to ensure everyone’s safety.

Much of this “current” information has been circulating since last year, when a similar threat was defused by the FBI and local law enforcement.

At this time we ask that you refrain from posting rumors or speculation in this case.

If you have genuine information involving threats to Dragon*Con and/or its attendees, please send the information to our senior staff person in charge of security, (Bobby Dennis) conops (at) dragoncon (dot) org.

Sincerely,
Dragon*Con Management
