BBB Warns on Ticket Scams
As people plan to attend summer music festivals scheduled across Illinois, the Better Business Bureau is warning consumers to be aware of phony tickets sold to festivals that don’t exist. According to a press release, counterfeit tickets sold for fake events aren’t anything new, but as pent-up enthusiasm for summer events grows, scams could be worse this year. According to the BBB, the scams often begin on social media. After clicking, consumers are taken to a legitimate looking website with what looks like photographs of the event, but are pics from another event.
