Sometimes overlooked - the concert ticket scam

Here are some sites the experts say you should avoid:

• cliffrichardtour.com
• vfestival2009.net
• tinaturnerworldtour.com
• downloadfestival2009.com
• worldticketshop.com
• theonlineticketshop.com
• double8tickets.com

Before purchasing, you can contact the credit card company you have bought the tickets with (or are thinking of using) and ask them if they have previously had to pay out a refund for the company in question.

In the UK - You should be looking for a UK registered office, a UK registered company, a UK phone number, a VAT registration number. Look for things you can verify.
