As a concert-goer for the past 30 years, I have witnessed a drastic shift in how tickets are distributed. For two decades, I received physical tickets in the mail, tangible proof of an upcoming experience. However, since the arrival of online ticketing over the last ten years, this has changed dramatically.

The rise of digital ticketing has not only altered our experience but also brought about an appalling level of fraudulent activity. Millions of social media accounts are being hacked every day to sell counterfeit tickets. Innocent fans are losing thousands to these thieves and fraudsters.

Ticket agencies seem to be turning a blind eye to this growing menace that is causing significant financial loss for consumers worldwide.

It is high time we address this issue head-on by reinstating paper tickets which are harder to forge and making online ticket scamming punishable with custodial sentences.

Join me in urging lawmakers and ticket agencies alike to take decisive action against online ticket scams by signing this petition today!
