Have you tried getting ticketing support from Ticketmaster? Even a sketchy phone number is better than no option at all…

I don't mean reaching for support. I mean setting up a scam like this. It seems so bottom of the barrel scummy, creative too, but mostly scummy.

Imagine you have the creativity and criminal energy to conceptualize and operate something like this (and the rat tail of justice evasion, laundering money, etc). It seems so much easier to make money in the honest economy.

Unless of course you're operating for a rogue state...

People do this sort of thing specifically because the "honest" economy is not really that great except for a small percentage of people.
You've got a shocking amount of faith in the honest economy for this moment in time
"This moment" that has lasted about 22 years or so. There were two good runs if you had money to invest, but whatever.
