We are currently looking into companies selling 'touted' tickets and we are doing what we can to stop fraudulent activity.
FURTHER INFORMATION & CONTACTS:
If you feel a victim of these companies we suggest a number of actions:
- Call the police; if your money has been taken and no product delivered, this is theft.
- Report the company to the Trading Standards
- Contact the BBC's watchdog programme
- Contact the websites' Internet Service Providers as they have obligations to ensure they are not publishing fraudulent and illegal activity.
