They investigate a massive fraud in the sale of tickets for Coldplay concerts in Barcelona

The Mossos d'Esquadra have launched an investigation for a scam related to the tickets for the concerts that Coldplay is performing in Barcelona this week. Police sources have explained to the ACN that they have received some twenty complaints for tickets purchased, mostly on resale, which have not allowed them to access the Olympic Stadium in the Catalan capital.

The Mossos calculate that there are more affected, who are already organizing themselves to find a solution to their situation. The most common case is that of the same ticket sold to different people, so that only the first one to arrive at the concert venue can access the venue.

The police have already arrested four people on the night of Thursday to Friday for selling special passes, bracelets and credentials to fraudulently access concerts in the vicinity of the stadium.

The men, who have a history of similar events, impersonated the organizers and searched for possible victims in the vicinity of the Olympic Stadium.
