This time has entered the "peak season" of concerts
This also makes it difficult to get tickets for the concert
Some unscrupulous people take advantage of fans
The psychology of "asking for tickets" is a fraud
Recently, the man suspected of fraud Qian Moumou
was arrested by the police of the Jin'an Criminal Investigation Brigade, and after investigation, this person pretended to be a customer service staff and falsely peddled concert tickets on the Internet to deceive the "star chasers", and has been detained in accordance with the law
"I saw a message selling Jay Chou's concert tickets on the Xiaohongshu App, so I had a private chat with the person who posted the information, and the other party claimed to be a customer service staff of a certain company, with a small number of concert tickets, and could help grab tickets for auction."
A few days ago, Ms. Cai went to the Jin'an Criminal Investigation Brigade to report to the police. She said that this person was Qian Moumou, and she negotiated with the other party to buy a concert ticket with a ticket price of 1,200 yuan and a purchasing fee of 800 yuan, and Ms. Cai, who was eager to buy the ticket, transferred 2,000 yuan to the account designated by the suspect according to the other party's request.
After that, Qian Moumou asked Ms. Cai to "wait for news", and then repeatedly lied that she wanted to purchase new equipment, that there was a problem with her bank card, etc., and asked Ms. Cai to transfer another 4,000 yuan to her designated account. After Ms. Cai paid, she still did not receive the tickets, so she realized that she had been deceived and called the police.
The Jin'an Criminal Investigation Brigade immediately intervened in the investigation and judgment, and quickly arrested the man suspected of fraud, Qian Moumou, and recovered the money, recovering the loss for Ms. Cai. At present, Qian Moumou has been detained in accordance with the law on suspicion of fraud, and the case is being further handled.
Watching a concert is fun
But these scam routines have to be guarded against
Routine 1: "Insiders"
On the eve of the official ticket sales for the concert, scammers everywhere claimed that there were official ticket sales channels, or claimed to be insiders, who could buy very tight tickets to attract fans to take the bait.
When fans buy tickets, they will ask for payment for various reasons such as deposits, hardship fees, etc., and even defraud more money on the grounds that they need to re-note the payment before the tickets can be issued. After the fan completes the payment, he will be quickly blocked, and he will no longer be able to contact the "insider", and the "ticket" and "money" will be lost.
Routine 2: "Tearful Transfer"
On the eve of the concert, on major social platforms, there will always be a large number of "sad people" out of thin air, and their excuses are surprisingly consistent: "I don't want to break up with the object and don't want to go" and "tearfully transfer without a price increase"...... It seems to be very "sincere", but in fact, this is all a fraud method of criminals. Criminals often strike up with victims on second-hand trading websites, and block them after receiving the transfer.
Trick 3: Send a fake website link
Criminals lurk in various group chats on social platforms in advance to release information about concert tickets. After a fan "hooks" and adds friends, criminals will avoid the formal trading platform, send fake website links to fans, and ask for payment through the website. Most fans are in a hurry to buy tickets and will pay directly, but they did not expect to fall into the trap.
Routine 4: Selling high-imitation fake tickets
Near the opening, around the concert venue, there are often some people peddling "scalper tickets". These tickets are not only at a higher premium, but most of them are high-imitation fake tickets, and when fans are ready to enter the theater with their tickets, they find out that they have been deceived.
Reminder
1. Do not buy tickets out of official channels. To buy performance tickets, be sure to buy them through formal channels, and do not believe in the words "insiders" and "there is a way" to avoid unnecessary economic losses, and the safest and safest way to buy them is on the official website.
2. Please note the private message of the ticket agent. On various social platforms, using "ticket agent" as the username, forging the official ticketing logo, and asking whether there is a need to buy tickets in private messages, are very likely to be scammers.
3. Don't click on unfamiliar links easily, beware of entering fake ticketing websites made by scammers, and prevent Trojan programs from stealing online banking accounts. Those who do not trade through formal platforms, ask for private transfers, or ask for repeated payments for various reasons, and have to pay a deposit for refunds are very likely to be scammers.
4. Keep evidence and report to the police in a timely manner. If you have any questions about the booking information, you should contact the customer service of the official ticketing company in time, and once you find that you have been deceived, you should report to the police in time and keep the relevant evidence.
