Craigslist scam!!!


cheeky_monkey85 Flag essex 10 May 16 11.34pm

Please avoid trying to use this site for tickets. I have tried on two occasions now and one guy selling two club wembley for 300 a ticket. But was willing to accept 150 each. Said he just wants genuine person and not bothered about the money. Said to meet his son at harleston station and would need to be returned there. Researched the number and email and its a scammer.

Second was two seats in palace sector who said this I am here in the northeast of England working as present so would a special delivery tomorrow via FedEx be ok for you? Cost £8, my fiancés Wembley cards will need returning after use ok. 

Bit of research this guy has stole the persons identity and it's on the real guys twitter. I've attached a few pictures to what they have sent. I'm gutted I've not been able to get tickets and be able to take my dad but I would much rather watch it on TV that be put of pocket and robbed like this.

Please just avoid this website all together.

I.must admit I always thought craigslist was an American site but when I was looking for tickets myself I came across the site. Hard to know what's real and fake on there as with anything. Same goes for people selling on facebook. My own school friend has just paid £150 to someone for a pair. I pray to god she gets them x

There's a long documented history of people being ripped off on Craigslist for footy tickets. It's not the place to go shopping for them.

Stub hub is prob the best place but nothing on there as far as I am aware

Hi fellow supporters of our great club
I've joined on here just to warn you all
I nearly fell for this Craigslist scam also as I was going to buy 4 tickets in club Wembley neutral area from a dick called Mark Moron
His email address is markmoron@contractor.net
Me and and a mate did a fair amount of research first and all seemed legit to a point.
But he changed meeting up arrangements at last moment and then claimed he could not make it due to last minute work issues and could I get tickets from a mate etc
I asked him about id and proof of his Wembley membership etc to be told it's my dad's and I'm not able to contact him as he is on holiday etc
Smelt a rat and we pulled out
BEWARE !!!!

I desperately want to get my dad a ticket but gave up on Craigslist because thought there'd be nothing worse than getting a fake ticket and him travelling all the way and then we realise he couldn't get in.

Exactly how much research did you have to do before you arrived at the conclusion that someone whose name was mark moron was a scammer? Really, anyone who sends money to markmoron@contactor.net is probably getting what they're asking for.
