Description

I was attempting to buy Broadway tickets online. This was my first time doing so, and I tried to make sure I went directly to the venue to avoid scammers. This business, TicketSqueeze, maintains a website that is branded for the venue with misleading language/branding that made it appear to be the legitimate venue, with the links to the only valid ticket sales. It also contains misleading language promising the ticket sales are the only way to avoid inflated fees. The website also shows up at the top of Google results when searching for the show's venue. After a weird, sketchy ticket delivery process, it became clear that this website and company (TicketSqueeze.com) are a reseller marketplace that had inflated the ticket price and fees by over 30%. I'm not sure the tickets are even valid, as they did not come from a legitimate company, but rather an individual. The contact phone number listed on the website goes to a completely other company (Ticketmaster) and is not even in use anymore. I'll be pursuing this further with my credit card company and the customer support.
