Oasis fans have lost over £2m to ticket scams
Lloyds Banking Group has estimated, based on the volume of fraud reports made by its own customers, that since Oasis reunion tickets were released, more than £2m has been stolen by ticket scammers across more than 1,000 cases.
The bank said that many cases began on social media and that across its banks - Lloyds Bank, Halifax and Bank of Scotland - Oasis fans made up more than half of all reported concert ticket scams so far this year, losing £436 on average. The biggest amount lost in a single case was over £1,700.
Fake Oasis tickets were the biggest type of ticket scams, with the average victim losing around £200 more than the average lost to a concert ticket scam.
People aged 35 to 44 were the most likely to be scammed, making up nearly a third of all cases. Edinburgh, Warrington and Manchester have the highest numbers of victims.
Lisa Webb, a consumer law expert at Which? said: 'Scammers are always looking for new ways to part people from their hard-earned cash and unfortunately, Oasis tickets being in such high demand has created a perfect storm for criminals.
If you spot any suspicious posts, you can report them to the social media platform and the National Cyber Security Centre to investigate.'

As well as setting up 2-Step Verification, you should also use strong passwords which differ from each other.
