RootieBoy

Apple Pay

King Boo

Mar 22, 4:32pm

On a credit card? Dispute.

mulletino

Apple Pay itself doesn't offer purchase protection, but the protection they receive depends on the card they used

I'd be willing to help them fund legit tickets if others want to kick in too.

I'll join you (unless this is also slightly longer-con scam) 😉

Send me some money and I swear I'll pass it along to them

Cougs'16

Mar 22, 4:47pm

If you send me money and then you get others to send you money, and they get others to send them money…

There will likely be people outside selling tickets, assuming they have the💰

ByTheirFruits

I was just there. Lots of people out front looking, but no one selling...

Would it work to get tickets from those leaving the first game?

King Boo

Mar 22, 4:35pm

No, he asked. I guess once scanned they can’t be transferred.

King Boo

Mar 22, 4:38pm

They don’t allow re-entrance to avoid this.

cougarim

Mar 22, 4:38pm

Never buy from anywhere except legit sites like SeatGeek, Ticketmaster, etc.

Would be an honor to be scammed by such a brilliant person tbh

Anyone know how much tickets are going for? I'm willing to pitch in, but what if all 4 don't have enough to get in?

bbqoug

Mar 22, 4:54pm

I told him I’d front $300

King Boo

Mar 22, 4:47pm

Are these kids punks or good kids?

King Boo

Mar 22, 5:01pm

timpjynx

royalbluemenace

freshprince

You raised $1200! What a miracle you all are.

King Boo

bbqoug

I missed that. Thanks for pointing me to it. I sent it to him.

King Boo
