As fans get ready to secure tickets to Bruno Mars' The Romantic Tour concert in Singapore, the police have reminded members of the public to remain vigilant against concert ticket scams.
Ticket sales for the April 2027 concert are expected to begin on Friday (Sept 11), and that could be the time when concert ticket scammers strike, the police said in an advisory on Tuesday (Sept 8) night.
They added that the scam variant typically resurfaces whenever there is strong interest in major concert events.
Scammers would typically exploit the high demand for tickets by posting fraudulent listings for non-existent tickets or ticket-purchasing services on social media platforms, online market places, and messaging applications.
Victims of this scam variant who make payment for such "tickets" may either receive nothing, or end up being issued with invalid tickets.
Concert goers are advised to purchase concert tickets only from Ticketmaster, the authorised ticketing platform.
They should also note that these tickets are strictly non-transferrable and non-resaleable, and are strongly advised to refrain from buying tickets from unverified sellers, regardless of the price offered.
The police said they have also reached out to platforms such as Carousell, Facebook Marketplace and TikTok to request the removal of such resale concert ticket listings.
Meta's commerce policies and Facebook Marketplace already do not allow content that promotes the buying, selling, or trading of event tickets.
Remember, if it is too good to be true, it most likely isn't.
随着歌迷们准备抢购布鲁诺·马尔斯在新加坡举行的“浪漫之旅”演唱会门票，警方提醒公众要警惕演唱会门票诈骗。
警方在周二（9月8日）晚间发布的公告中表示，2027年4月音乐会的门票预计将于周五（9月11日）开始销售，届时可能会出现音乐会门票诈骗分子出没的情况。
他们补充说，每当人们对大型音乐会活动表现出浓厚的兴趣时，这种诈骗手段通常会再次出现。
诈骗分子通常会利用人们对门票的高需求，在社交媒体平台、在线市场和即时通讯应用程序上发布虚假的门票或购票服务信息。
这种骗局的受害者如果为这类“门票”付款，可能什么也收不到，或者最终拿到无效的门票。
建议音乐会观众仅通过官方授权的售票平台 Ticketmaster 购买音乐会门票。
他们还应该注意，这些门票严禁转让和转售，强烈建议不要从未经核实的卖家处购买门票，无论报价如何。
警方表示，他们也已联系 Carousell、Facebook Marketplace 和 TikTok 等平台，要求删除此类转售演唱会门票的信息。
Meta 的商业政策和 Facebook Marketplace 已经不允许发布宣传买卖或交易活动门票的内容。
记住，如果某件事好得令人难以置信，那它很可能就不是真的。
