A Scots dad has warned others after falling victim to a Taylor Swift Facebook scam ahead of the pop icon's Murrayfield gig. Scott from Livingston was desperate to secure his 12-year-old daughter Sophie tickets to see the Love Story singer in concert on June 9.
The 41-year-old couldn't believe his luck when he came across two tickets up for sale on a 'Taylor Swift ticket page' on Facebook. Out of desperation, he paid for the tickets after he was 'harassed' by the seller.
On arrival at Murrayfield, security informed him his tickets were not valid leaving his daughter devastated. Speaking to Edinburgh Live, Scott said looking back on the incident he "should have clicked" it was a scam and hopes other people don't fall victim to the same situation.
He said: "I bought the tickets from a Taylor Swift page on Facebook and it was meant to be an official ticket selling page. It was so last minute and they were on sale for Sunday and I just stupidly bought them straight away.
"It was £220 altogether for the two tickets. I was then getting harassed from the seller for the money which I then sent straight away.
"I should have clicked that it was a scam but they called me about three times to which I answered and said they were thieving me and that they need to send the tickets over to me straight away. I should have thought about it all sooner but because I was doing it for my daughter, I just did it straight away and didn’t look at the bigger picture.
"When we got to Murrayfield, and the security scanned them on Ticketmaster, the tickets were fake. They told us we weren’t getting in and my daughter was obviously in tears. I will never buy a ticket through an alternative ticket-selling site again."
