Expert warns Taylor Swift fans to prepare for potential ticket scams next week

Fans across the UK are buzzing with excitement about Taylor Swift’s 2024 Era’s tour pre-sale next week. Loyal fans who have already registered on Ticketmaster will be finding out today (July 5) if they have been successful and whether they will be receiving a ticket access code.

Competition for these tickets is fierce and hundreds and thousands of fans are eager to get their hands on one. When the US leg of the popstar's tour went on sale last year, demand was so high that Ticketmaster's systems crashed - with a similar situation expected to potentially occur again for the UK leg.

But with seriously popular events such as this, there’s a chance that fans aren't the only ones awaiting the pre-sale. Cybercriminals, aware of the high demand, may use this as an opportunity to target individuals with various social engineering attempts.
