I got scammed for the Va Tech game 2 years ago. I spoke to the dude numerous times and scared into him giving my money back (he was the worst scammer ever). The BR police got him at some point and i've been waiting on a call from them for a follow up.

Stubhub - DOES NOT Guarantee the tickets,just the transaction.

If you tickets don't work, you still don't get in, Stubhib, will refund the money after the fact

You must be talking about Tommy Emmons. I always write down license plates. The scammers don't think about that. I personally scoped out where Tommy lived in Mandeville at the time. He was arrested by the state police and even made the news. Had he only scammed one person he would have gotten away but there were about 5 of us involved. I threatened him personally and got my tickets from him even though the first game of the season had already been played. This was about 5 years ago. I know 2 of the 5 for sure were screwed over by him and had to take him to court. He had done this in previous years as well.

FYI the other posters are wrong about the post dated checks. Banks will still process them.

Adding scammer info even though bought ticket from another website, not TD.

Paid $75 for A & M ticket through pay pal, but never received ticket. Working with pay pal now to reverse (which it sounds like they will do).

Seller’s email is Mcu0146@proton.me. Pay pal acct is poohashbear@gmail.com.

Were red flags I should have seen, but figured using pay pal was protection. Hopefully it is.
