Counterfeit Tickets
Is it possible that The Poor Man could be duped into buying a counterfeit ticket when he wants to get into The Big Game or Concert? Anything is possible.
With the advent of the computer and the sophisticated printers that have evolved with it, counterfeit tickets have become more and more prevalent. And they are getting more and more difficult to spot. However, there are a few things that The Poor Man can keep in mind to limit the chances of getting taken advantage of by the ticket forger.
Counterfeit tickets are usually not passed along in the secondary marketplace by the professional Ticket Scalper. They are usually sold to unsuspecting fans by a one hit wonder. These are people that are immoral, thieves, people that want something for nothing or all of the above.
They are trying to capitalize on an event that promises to have a great demand and they will seldom be seen at the same venue more than once. They print up the bogus tickets and hope to sell them on a hit and run type of transaction. By the time their forgery is discovered at the gate entrance, they are long gone!
My hope is that you, The Poor Man, will begin following the first and most important rule outlined in Chapter 3 to prevent this from happening to you.
