On the evening of 26th, the May Day "Just Rock It" concert was held in the Bird’s Nest of the National Stadium, which kicked off the three-night continuous singing. The Beijing Morning Post reporter learned that there were nearly 100,000 fans who came to watch the performance, among which the figure of scalper was indispensable. Because one ticket is hard to find, many fans have to buy tickets through scalpers. But some scalpers actually sell fake tickets, which makes fans cry. Barley net staff said that more than 50 fake tickets were investigated and dealt with on the evening of 26th. In addition, the public security organs have closely supervised the concert site and have arrested more than 10 illegal elements.
Students were cheated out of pocket money for one month.
At 5: 30 pm on the 26th, the reporter came outside the Bird’s Nest, one hour before the concert started, but some scalpers had gathered on the way from the subway exit to the entrances of various areas of the Bird’s Nest. "Want a ticket? Cheap, good location. " The scalper is holding the ticket in his hand and shouting at the passers-by. The reporter noticed that the organizers made a lot of reminders to prevent scalpers and fake tickets, but there were still fans who were "recruited".
"I saved a month’s pocket money just to see my idol, but I didn’t expect to draw water with a sieve." When Xiao Zhao, a college student, told the reporter about his experience, his eyes sparkled with tears. She has been fascinated by Mayday since junior high school, and she can be regarded as a die-hard fan. Xiao Zhao knows that tickets for the Mayday concert are hard to find. Before that, I didn’t grab them on the regular ticketing website, and I plan to try my luck at the scene.
"Before I came, I found on the Internet that grandstand tickets generally have to be increased at least in 100 yuan." On the verge of the opening ceremony, Xiao Zhao was a little anxious, but at this moment someone happened to sell her tickets, and the original price was 555 yuan to sell 450 yuan. "On the surface, there is no difference between this ticket and the real ticket, and the man said that he lost money because he had already started." Hearing this, Xiao Zhao was a little moved, but she thought she had picked up a big bargain. She was stopped when she entered the venue and was told that it was a fake ticket.
More than 50 fake tickets were found on the spot.
Barley net’s staff told reporters that fake tickets sold by scalpers are always abhorrent and hard to prevent. Barley net website has repeatedly reminded fans to buy tickets through formal channels, not to buy scalper tickets and beware of fake tickets, but there are still many fans who are in a hurry and fall for it. "On the 26th, we investigated and dealt with more than 50 fake tickets at the scene, and suggested that the deceived fans report to the public security department at the scene." According to the staff, the Public Security Management Brigade of Beijing Public Security Bureau will closely supervise the performance site and arrange a large number of policemen to arrest at the scene. On the evening of 26th, more than 10 illegal elements have been arrested.
■ Reminder
There is a difference between the QR code of real and fake tickets.
By observing the fake tickets collected by the staff, the reporter found that the fake tickets are now well-made, and it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity from the appearance. According to the staff, the simplest identification method is to log in to the barley net anti-fraud page and enter the face verification code for inquiry. In addition, the staff reminded fans that the QR code displayed on the tickets sold by regular barley is an encrypted QR code, and the seat information must be displayed with professional ticket inspection equipment. Scanning with mobile phones is garbled. The QR code on the fake ticket is an ordinary QR code, but it can display a false seat number after scanning with a mobile phone. "Without knowing it, many fans mistakenly took such tickets as real tickets and were deceived."
