An Ottawa family has been left devastated after falling victim to a $15,600 Taylor Swift ticket scam. Mel Keogh, a mother from Ottawa, purchased 28 tickets for the highly anticipated Toronto leg of Swift's Eras Tour in hopes of creating a magical experience for her extended family and friends. Instead, they were left heartbroken and out of pocket.
Keogh believed she was purchasing legitimate tickets from an independent broker she had used previously. "To break it to the girls that we weren't going—it was horrendous," she told CTV News Ottawa, fighting back tears. "It was all we'd been talking about for over a year."
