Scam Description
The person responded to my concert tickets wanted ad. We had a thorough text exchange in which he convinced me I should trust him, and he sounded like a legitimate human being. I followed these instructions he sent, and as soon as he got the payment he stopped responding to my messages and never sent the tickets. He told me to send the money using “friends and family” from my credit card on PayPal.
