Do not buy tickets from unofficial, unverified, or unknown sources, and never purchase tickets being resold at inflated prices. Scammers often take advantage of high-demand concerts, cultural events, and sporting events by creating ticket resale groups on social media and pretending to be fans or legitimate sellers.

To protect yourself, purchase tickets only through officially verified channels and use trusted third-party payment platforms whenever possible. Before making a payment, always confirm the ticket details, including the ticket number, seat information, event name, date, and seller information.

How to Spot a Possible Scam

1. The seller cannot provide a valid ticket number.
2. The seller claims to be an insider or staff member.
3. The seller offers large quantities of tickets for multiple events.
4. The seller uses random or non-assigned seating methods.
5. The seller refuses to provide detailed ticket information.

Fraud Prevention Tips

1. Buy tickets only through officially verified channels.

If you believe you have been scammed, call 165 Anti-Fraud Hotline immediately and explain the situation to a specialist.
