Lloyds Bank has revealed that “hundreds” of Oasis fans have been hit by scammers, with an average of £346 being lost per person according to the bank’s data. Many have been swindled out of far higher amounts.
It seems that these originated online, most coming via fake adverts and social media posts that cropped up during or after the bunfight for Oasis tickets in late August/early September. Fans are instructed to pay upfront for tickets and then, mysteriously, the seller disappears.
