Scam Description
I googled ticketmaster customer service contact number, and googles first search link gave me the number 18669634926. The gentleman answered with I’d # and his name as John, how can I help you?
I asked my question about how to verify a real online ticket vs a fake. As I was looking to buy a Ticketmaster ticket from someone. He told me the safest way was thought ticketmaster directly. He said let me look. I have a few tickets left with a promotion happening with Apple. Apple owns a few tickets and is selling them through a promotion with the use of their products. You just have to purchase the tickets with a prepaid apple card purchased from your local gas station or store. He gave mehis direct number and ext and had me call him back. 1 316 844 3552 ext 2782. He took my Ticketmaster email and account info, I paid for the tickets and he said I will receive confirmation via email. And the tickets follow within 24 hours.
All lies!!! Nothing received and no answer on those numbers when I call them back
