Australian ethical ticket resale platform Tixel has launched a new service to help punters avoid getting ripped off by ticket sellers.
Ticket Sheriff is a search engine that allows buyers to look up sellers by their name or Facebook username to see they have a “history of naughty behaviour”.
The website also allows people to submit potential scammers and will soon include a feature for punters to be able to check their tickets to see if they’re real or not.
Launched last year by Zac Leigh and Jason Webb – who conceived the idea after being scammed themselves back in 2015 at a Tame Impala concert - Tixel has already partnered with more than 70 events, including Beyond The Valley and FOMO, to help more than 70,000 fans buy or sell tickets safely.
