The public has been warned about a new scam appearing on social media where fake profiles offer to sell tickets for shows and concerts.
The scam appears in the comments of posts looking for tickets for shows and has become more and more common in recent months. In many cases tickets for the show have not even gone on sale when the offers are made by the bogus accounts.
The comments have also popped up on posts about tickets that are free, with lines such as "I have tickets for sale, DM me" appearing underneath. The posts have appeared on many public pages for promoters and even on profiles where people are praising a show for being entertaining.
