Think you can't be scammed? Scammers are everywhere! Keep your eyes open.
I recent;y posted about my band playing that City Winery Philly show. There was a thread on Facebook where we listed the event. A few people were psyched about the show and posted.
On Sunday, someone posted "Hey, we have a bunch of tickets, but unfortunately can't go. I need to sell them, message me here".
Nice try...the show had happened already....on Friday!. Can you imagine? Scammers selling fake tickets to a 250 seat show? We know we're small potatoes in the larger scheme of things, but they prey on people not thinking of that.
The band is ticked off, too, because that damages our reputation. What are these scammers thinking? A couple hundred bucks if they sell a few tickets...maybe?
Be careful, everyone.
