As expected before every big ticket-based sporting event, people will run scams. News reports of people discovering they are not going to get their tickets are all over the place. Attorney Generals and lawyers specializing in class action lawsuits are running over each other to defend the abused. The sadder story will start next week when people arrive in China only to find out the physical tickets they have are fake.
Now many of the people who are not getting the tickets sent to them are more victims of stupidity of the seller than bad intentions. There is some number of people out there who double sold and did not do anything about it.
Overall, this is a black eye on the ticket aftermarket and there is very little we can do. Places like StubHub who have the “FanProtect” Guarantee come out looking good because they are protecting the consumer.
For the people who were fraudulent, they have a storm coming after them from all the lawyers and attorney generals.
