    Not sure if this is the right section but want to warn people Adverts is riddled with Concert ticket scammers!

    I was recently samme for €265 for a pair of Depeche Mode tickets.

    I reported it to Adverts,revolut and the Guards.

    I still have an alert set up for same on Adverts and dodgy Depeche Mode ticket ads pop up every few days.

    Sorry to hear that. Do you have details of their full name, address or workplace?

    When buying through adverts or Facebook market place, always insist paying via PayPal and using the goods and services option. That way you are 100% protected if the seller is bogey. The extra few quid in fees is worth it for the peace of mind.
