Description

My wife went to purchase concert tickets online at ticket master. She purchased the tickets for the wrong city and venue. When she went onto the internet she googled ticket master customer service, and she called the number that came up, which was the fraudulent number for the scammer that took our money. They asked her to purchase $500 of apple gift cards, and that once she loaded that onto her ticket master account, she could then get reimbursed for her tickets. So she purchased 5, one hundred dollar apple gift cards. When she called up they had her read the gift card numbers to them, and they immediately used the gift cards, but she was never refunded any money because after she did all this she realized that they were not actually with Ticket Master. They were very nice, and convinced her to do all this under the false pretense that she'd get reimbursed.
