Out of this World - Viagogo scam
The Taranaki Symphony Orchestra is holding an exciting concert this Saturday at the TSB Showplace to celebrate 50 years since the moon landing. Obviously Viagogo recognises that this is going to be a wonderful concert as they are trying to scam the public by offering tickets to this at 6 times the price of the tickets that you can buy from Ticketek. Apart from that Viagogo won't say where the seats are, whereas if you buy on line from Ticketek you get a seating plan and you can choose seats. They are cunning, because if you Google "Out of this World", New Plymouth their website comes up first.
I don't know how this company (that isn't registered in NZ) is allowed to continue to operate here and to scam people like this.
But be warned and if you are wanting to go to this concert get your tickets from Ticketek (either at the box office or on-line).
