MORE Filipino “Swifties” have lodged complaints with the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) after they were allegedly scammed by ticket resellers for Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour” concert in Singapore, as reported by ABS-CBN’s Niko Baua.
According to Baua, one victim lost P600,000 worth of VIP tickets.
The victims discovered the scam when the resellers deactivated their social media accounts, failed to deliver the tickets, or provided counterfeit tickets.
Recently, over 100 Filipino “Swifties” collectively lost nearly P15 million to a scam involving fake tickets for the Eras Tour concert.
Taylor Swift is set to headline six shows in Singapore, which is the only stop in Southeast Asia for her The Eras Tour, scheduled on March 2 to 4 and March 7 to 9.
Sabrina Carpenter will be joining her as a special guest.
Earlier, over 100 Swifties lost a total of almost P15 million after being scammed by someone who pretended to be selling tickets for Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour” concert in Singapore.
According to Jonathan Andal’s report in “24 Oras Weekend,” Sunday, among the hundreds of Swifties who got scammed was Rhea* (not her real name), who paid a total of P98,000 for four tickets.
“Nahanap ko siya doon sa group, ‘yung sa ERAS tour group. So, um, nag-post naman kami doon. Parang, pa-vouch po. Parang, legit ba to? Tapos, nakita ko, may mga nag-vouch sa kanya,” she said.
Aside from Rhea, another victim has lost a whopping P400,000 to the scammer.
Sparkle star Sofia Pablo was also among those who fell prey to the scheme.
