Nothing unusual about that except in this digital age scammers and rip-off merchants are two a penny as they fleece punters of their hard-earned cash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ten years ago, when Peter Kay last toured the issue of tickets was more to do with demand from the venue \u2013 but now criminals have set up lookalike websites and posing as the legitimate seller. And some unscrupulous sellers as highlighted by Elizabeth Haigh of the Daily Mail have hiked prices for Kay\u2019s shows by 1,080%. She reported: \u201cTickets at a face value price of \u00a3150 each in Leeds in September are now on sale at Viagogo for \u00a31,770 &#8211; a 1,080 percent mark-up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clearly people are upset by the huge mark-ups but even worse are fake websites that copy legitimate ones down to last piece of graphic in order to take cash for tickets which don\u2019t exist. The BBC\u2019s Simon Read reported in the summer on scammers selling fake Premier League tickets. He wrote: \u201cFraudsters are using social media to offer fake tickets and trick unsuspecting victims out of their cash &#8211; the average loss is \u00a3410, according to Lloyds Bank. The fans pay by bank transfer, which offers no protection to consumers. If you can&#8217;t pay by credit or debit card, \u2018that&#8217;s a big red flag that you&#8217;re about to get scammed,\u2019 the bank warned. Cases of the scams climbed by more than two-thirds between January and June, according to Lloyds Bank data. This surge was because fraudsters took advantage of people desperate to attend live events after Covid restrictions ended.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using sites on social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and TikTok scammers list tickets they have \u2013 sometimes at low prices claiming to be a fan who cannot make a gig \u2013 sometimes at high prices for the most popular events. They will post images of tickets online, but these are usually fakes \u2013 and they always ask for payment by bank transfer and use high pressure tactics to clinch a sale suggesting there\u2019s only seconds before the offer is withdrawn. And once the bank transfer has gone through the scammer disappears and you have lost your cash and have no ticket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Checkaco was created for consumers so that they can quickly access very detailed information about a company.
