Venice–Palermo, scam alert: ghost tickets and fans scammed on social…

News: After the sold-out at the Penzo stadium for the match against Palermo, a serious episode of fraud against fans occurred. According to what was reported by "PianetaSerieB", some criminals took advantage of the exhaustion of tickets to implement an online scam system, affecting at least a dozen people. The mechanism would always have been the same: fake profiles offering the sale of now unobtainable tickets, with payments requested on Postepay cards registered to real or apparently credible individuals. Several fans, having realized the deception, turned to the Postal Police, providing screenshots of the conversations and data on the payments made. An episode that sparked outrage, especially due to the fact that the perpetrators of the scam exploited the strong demand for tickets for a highly anticipated match.
