How to prevent getting scammed on tickets

only because you asked, verified resellers would be the only thing I'd trust.

I remember the good ole days when you could barter with black guys around campus or just hold up 2 fingers outside the stadium.

Why not just “guys”?

Definitely dont buy from anybody on facebook. On here you chances of getting scammed are less likely and you can usually click on their account and look at previous sales where people responded to them exc

But seatgeek is the way to go if you dont want to stress

Prices on the resellers like seat geek are pricey,

It is still early. People are asking a lot at this point in case they get lucky with some fans that have got to be at that game. Prices will adjust lower as the game week progresses.

SeatGeek and Stubhub guarantee your purchase. For the Rose Bowl a few years ago, my tickets did not arrive on game day morning. I got a call from a Stubhub representative who apologized and gave me two tickets that were better seats than I had purchased at no additional cost.

If using Venmo or such, make sure the phone number on the Venmo is the same as you've been texting them on. Send payment with any guarantee the payment platform offers, even if it costs an extra 3%. Don't do the F/F purchase!

Or, buy on SeatGeek.

i have had good success buying on here in the past. not hard to figure it out.

Buy from consistent sellers from the Ticket Exchange here. I normally sell tickets (from my season tickets) for games that I cannot attend. As others have said, check the post history of the person selling. If they have a lot of posts on Tiger Rant, they are probably ok. Also, get their real name and cell phone number and call them and do an internet search on them. Once verified, the transaction itself is fairly easy. Venmo does not provide payment protection, unless you pay extra. PayPal does provide purchaser protection. With LSU's electronic method, I always ask for the buyer's cell phone and I give them my cell phone and Venmo account. Once I confirm payment, I send the tickets via the LSU Sports Mobile App immediately. Also, with my cell phone, on game day (if I am around), I am available if any issues arise. I almost got scammed by a buyer this year, which was a first, but I was diligent in making sure the buyer was real and not a scammer. I flushed it out fairly easy. I hope this helps.

Thank you. Been on Tigerdroppings for years and was not aware of a ticket exchange here. Used the one on dandydon numerous times, but ran into 2 scammer ones this week.

I support the death penalty for scammers!

Can you post the scammers names or email? Is this allowed here?
