It is understood that Ms. Zhang is a die-hard fan of Phoenix Legend and finally waited for them to come to Hangzhou for their concert. So she made an appointment with three friends to grab tickets together.
However, because there were so many people grabbing tickets, the tickets disappeared in seconds and none of the four people were able to grab them.
Ms. Zhang tried to find other channels for purchasing tickets online.
Soon, she saw a "seller" selling concert tickets on a social platform, and there were exactly 4 tickets, so she took the initiative to contact the seller.
"Because something happened to happen on December 1st, I had no choice but to reluctantly issue the tickets..." The other party claimed that he was not a "scalper" and was "sincerely" transferring the concert tickets.
Seeing that the other party issued the ticket at the original price, Ms. Zhang believed it and thought she had "successfully picked up the missing ticket."

immediately expressed that he wanted to buy these 4 tickets, and transferred 2,320 yuan to the account provided by the other party.
Just when Ms. Zhang was happily waiting for the tickets, the other party told her that there was a problem with the ticket purchase process: "You paid too quickly just now and did not note the name of the ticket purchaser. You need to pay again."
Due to the eagerness to purchase the tickets, Ms. Zhang didn't think much about it, and transferred 2,320 yuan to the other party again.

But the other party asked for a third payment on the grounds of "order timeout".
But Ms. Zhang’s bank card balance has bottomed out. "Can you refund the first two funds to me first, and then I will transfer it..."
did not expect that the other party lost contact with her and never replied to her.
Ms. Zhang realized something was wrong and immediately called the police for help.
Cheng Yongyue immediately placed a protective stop payment on Ms. Zhang’s account. At the same time, Ms. Zhang was informed: "Tickets are guaranteed only if purchased through formal channels. Tickets sold through unofficial channels are all scams!"
"I really wanted to watch the concert, so I transferred all the money out as soon as my head got hot. Unexpectedly, The other party is a liar." Ms. Zhang regretted it and said she would learn from this lesson and pay more attention to anti-fraud propaganda.
Currently, the case is under investigation.
Common Routine Analysis
Routine 1
On the eve of the official concert ticket sales, scammers everywhere claim to have official ticket sales channels or insiders to attract fans to take the bait. When fans are ready to buy tickets, they will demand payment for various reasons such as deposits and hard work fees. They will even say that if the ticket is booked, they need to make a new note and pay before the ticket can be issued, in order to defraud more money.
Routine 2
On the eve of the concert, the scammer falsely claimed that he had bought the tickets but could not go because of something at home, or he broke up with his ex and "tearfully transferred" the tickets. He approached the victim on some second-hand trading websites and blacklisted the tickets after getting the money.
Routine Three
Scammers usually lurk in social software groups such as WeChat and QQ in advance to publish ticket information. When someone takes the bait, there are usually two ways to defraud. The first is to send fake website links to ask fans to pay through the website. Most fans think that the platform payment is safe and guaranteed, and they pay directly, but they never expected to enter a phishing website.Second, fans will be told that they need to pay a deposit before shipping, and pay the balance after receiving the tickets. There seems to be no problem with the transaction process, but the tickets received by fans are most likely to be counterfeit and high imitation tickets.
Routine 4
There are often people selling "scalper tickets" around the concert site. Fans are eager for votes and are often easily deceived. Not only do these tickets have a high premium, but most of them are high imitation tickets. When fans enter the venue with the tickets, they realize that they have been deceived.
Shangcheng police remind:
. Tickets must be purchased through formal channels, and do not believe in the rhetoric of "insiders" and "knowledge" to avoid unnecessary financial losses. The safest and most insured way is to purchase tickets on the official website .
. Those who do not trade through formal platforms, ask you to pay repeatedly for various reasons, and pay a deposit for refunds are definitely scammers.
. If you have any questions about the ticket booking information, please contact the customer service of the regular ticketing company in time. Once you find that you have been cheated, you should call the police in time and keep relevant evidence.
