People Are Being Warned Not To Purchase Coldplay Tickets From Online Scammers<\/em><\/p>\n

What a night it was. Filled with excitement, fear, worry and lots of tweets.<\/p>\n

Coldplay fans all around the UAE were on the Expo 2020 Dubai website soon after it had been announced that free tickets would go live, with many waiting two hours in queue and successfully being able to score incredible spots, and others not so much.<\/p>\n

Much like any other anticipated concert, SO many people wanted in on being able to catch the band perform live – that resellers even put them up on Dubizzle<\/h2>\n

The prices for the free tickets are currently up for the prices of between AED300-800.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Expo 2020 Dubai immediately sent out a cautionary announcement for fans to refrain from buying<\/h2>\n

The statement read:<\/p>\n

“We are aware that some free tickets for Coldplay’s concert on 15 February are being re-sold for money online.\u00a0We caution visitors against paying money to an untrusted source. The original purchaser may distribute more than one copy of the same ticket, thus leading to fraudulent sales. Each ticket has a unique QR code which can only be used once. Anyone arriving with a QR code that has already been used will not gain entry to the concert venue.”<\/p>\n
