um hello guys it's jessica welcome or
welcome back to my channel if you're new
here hello lighting is not normally this
bad i don't normally look this crusty
and well i'm not normally this exhausted
well that last one might not necessarily
be true but it is currently like 7 50
p.m exactly
i have a sinus infection that's been
super fun and i spent all week partying
all week all weekend friday night and
saturday night no sunday i just had
softball practice and i came home and i
had to drive out 30 minutes to go run an
errand and now i'm back and i just kind
of want to come in here and explain some
things really quick i've been meaning to
do this video for a little while because
i know a lot of you guys have been
struggling with this and i feel like
it's something that because i'm
knowledgeable about it i almost feel
obligated to kind of share my knowledge
with you guys because there's just been
a lot of well not so good situations
that have been happening happening
lately a lot of them have been to do
with justin bieber as people want to see
justin on tour and tickets sold out for
a lot of the shows that people want to
go to and the tickets that are available
for sale on ticketmaster are absolutely
under scams i don't mean like people
trying to like scam people online i mean
like it's people like listing them for
way too much money and like a stupid
amount where it's not even worth it like
do not spend 1700 on one single concert
ticket not worth it when the face value
is 300 like i'm sorry but like that's
not okay morally i don't know how people
feel okay doing that but it happens all
the freaking time and it's extremely
frustrating but it's part of
unfortunately the way things work so i'm
gonna kind of quickly run over a few
things on how to confidently buy resale
tickets without getting scammed now
obviously you know you can buy recent
tickets on ticketmaster it's a thing
they are offering it's a thing that you
can do and it makes it really really
simple just to buy your tickets right
there it's not always overpriced i mean
a lot of times it is but sometimes it's
like reasonably overpriced like it's
only like 20 30 40 50 more which like in
the long run it's nothing of a deal when
you're buying resell tickets and it's
not through ticketmaster there's a few
things to keep in mind that is super
super important there are some sites
that are completely and utterly true
verified like there's no way you can
lose out on your money you're gonna get
your ticket and you're gonna get it for
the money that it's advertised for and
you're not gonna have to worry about
somebody scamming you or stealing your
money and then not giving you a ticket
like for some reason if your ticket
doesn't show up or something doesn't
happen you get a full refund 100
promised guaranteed now these sites are
see geek and stubhub and there's a few
other ones such as leaves called game
time or something like that game day
something along those lines and there's
also video seats and a few other sites
like that those are probably the only
four i've ever used see geeks step up
video seats and game time i personally
never use game time or video seats i
know people that have and they are legit
and again they have sort of the policies
where if for some reason your tickets
aren't the way that it was supposed to
be they're you know something happens
with them you do get a full refund i
have in fact used both sea geek and
stubhub and sold tickets on seageek and
stubhub what you do when you actually
list your tickets is you have to put in
a credit card for your account so for
some reason you list the tickets the
person like say i bought these tickets i
give them my three hundred dollars well
for some reason if this person that's
selling them is a scammer the three
hundred dollars that i said fifty
dollars or whatever is going to the
actual platform to keep the site running
it is a company so obviously they want
money to keep the site running and the
other money's supposed to go to the
seller they stellar for some reason and
first off i want to say as well they do
not receive the funds until after the
tickets is received and used you receive
it after the actual event so like i had
to wait like
a week and a half i believe to get the
money for my billy island tickets which
kind of sucked but like it's okay
because i know they're doing it to
protect the fan which i completely and
utterly support so so for some reason to
the scam the money that is sitting in ce
or stuff or whatever will not go to the
seller the seller actually have to pay
the person who sold it to so like the
money will come out of their account
because if they're willing to say i want
to get 300 for my ticket because you
know i'm selling these tickets and if
they don't have the 300 well then
they're directly taking the money out of
their own pocket putting it into the
buyer's pocket because they scam them so
i really do support that i think it's a
great idea so you do have that kind of
that kind of safe net there that
nobody's going to list a ticket if
they're willing to be out 300 or
whatever the concert ticket is worth
whatever they're selling it for just why
would anybody do that when you're
literally going to be out money because
you know you can't get away with it
because it doesn't work like that so
you have those kind of safety protocols
in place for sites such as those but
that's what we're talking about you can
do all the research online of those um i
will also quickly drop this while i'm
talking about it if you do use seek i'm
just saying this because i generally do
want to help people i do have a code i'm
not here to promote it necessarily i'm
not sponsored by them i'm not anything
i'm just here to try and help you guys
out if you want to use my code it is
just just taylor that's it you get
twenty dollars off your first purchase
david dobrik tana mojo caitlyn ray all
the influencers that have codes it's the
exact same setup that i have it's the
same sort of thing i just got my own
personal promo code because i like to
buy concert tickets and i like my
friends to buy professor tickets and we
like to go so more of a i'm helping you
know other fans go to shows for a
discounted price which is never a bad
idea saving money is always a good thing
i'm gonna talk about twitter really
quick again i need to go over this super
fast because i'm hungover tired as hell
and got a shower and make my lunch work
tomorrow but when you're buying tickets
online it is super super important that
you check of the authenticity of the
tickets check for proof make sure the
tickets are there's way too many people
that i know that i've got to scam
through twitter because they don't do
their research and they don't do their
background checks on these people number
one thing that i have to say when you're
buying tickets off of sites such as
twitter check the account you are buying
from go through their likes go through
their retweets go to through their
replies go through their following go
through everything stock their account
hardcore figure out who they are as a
person and what their account is for if
you're scrolling through and this is
like the number one indicator if you're
scrolling through either their replies
or their likes and all of the replies
and likes are about concert tickets
being for sale or people wanting tickets
for sale right like number one
automatically goodbye do not send this
person money they are a scammer 100 of
the time this is completely fake because
nobody is going to be selling a ticket
to olivia rodrigo in south dakota and a
chancellor upper ticket in hawaii and a
justin bieber ticket in carolina like
nobody's gonna have those
those the oslo show that someone's
having next weekend oh i have four
tickets for that no you don't you're a
scammer that's not gonna happen do not
send this person that's a really really
huge important thing i also want to add
in here a ton of people have been
hatching onto this and they have
actually been creating fake fan accounts
that are selling tickets and a lot of
them are bts related so if you're trying
to buy justin tickets and you see a bts
account trying to sell you tickets and
they have like 12 followers they're
following like 50 people and they have
like 12 retweets and it's all bts stuff
and then you look through the replies
and there's no replies and you look
through their their likes and they have
like
one like here one like there there's a
lot of scammers out there that have made
these fake accounts they will search bts
content retweet it it's not necessarily
just bts a lot of it is just kpop
content making these fake kpop accounts
because it kind of appeals to a large
variety of people from all over the
world so they can actually access the
most amount of fans and try and scan
them from no matter where they are or
what demographic it's in so i have to
say it's smart in that case but chances
are nobody's just created an account and
retweeted 12 things ever and has no you
know what i mean like there's just some
red flags there and just kind of
analyzed it before obviously not
everybody everyone has to start their
account somewhere i'm not saying if you
have no followers they're fake but you
know what i mean like kind of analyze it
that way if someone only has like two
three followers and they have like 12
retweets of the same kind of type of
content and their account isn't brand
new and you know what i mean like it's
just it's a little bit sketch there so
when you're checking this i'm not going
to show proof because i do not want to
expose my tickets i personally have and
i forgot to screen record it before my
last show disappeared off of my little
roster go on to
tell them to go and do a screen
recording go from the twitter app from
the dm screen record to the ticketmaster
app and click on the ticket and show the
ticket on the thing something nice about
i mean nice and not nice at the same
time something about take a master now
is you can actually no longer use a
screenshot for a ticket to enter a venue
you actually have to have the physical
qr code it changes it's different it's
digital it's no longer just a random
barcode for this thing and obviously
some tickets are different if you go to
a smaller venue or you use a site that
isn't for ticketmaster for like a lot of
smaller artists they tend to do that
it's a little bit different but for
ticketmaster if you ever have a ticket
on ticketmaster you cannot use a
screenshot to enter the menu you need to
have the actual login so make sure that
you get the screen recording of the
ticket or even if they don't go from the
conversation if they seem like a pretty
legit person you don't have to go as far
as that extent to invade their whole
phone because i know it is kind of an
invasion of privacy sometimes and people
don't want to do that of you know screen
recording their entire like lock screen
or home screen or whatever it is you
know what i mean but definitely make
them go to the ticketmaster app and show
the ticket and like slide up and down
and click on it to verify that it is
actually in their account you can kind
of just use your judgment and if
something doesn't seem completely legit
for you ask more questions ask why are
you selling the tickets and you know
what happened why did you buy them in
the first place like there's many many
many times and i'm like this person
might be legit they said they're gonna
send me proof the proof hadn't come
through yet but i'm like i'm just i'm
not sure about them and i'll ask them
before i'll even like bother being like
i need to see a screen recording from
this point to this point ask them why
because a lot of times if it's like
money thing or someone's sick or
whatever it is and figured out and if
they don't respond to you which happens
all the time they will not respond to
you because they're scamming you and you
know you can catch on so let's not reply
and so if they don't reply their scammer
but i do need a shower i just wanted to
pop in here and say this the sun was
setting so i came into my bathroom to
finish this off because it's getting
dark outside but i love you guys i need
to go shower immediately and go to bed

watching if you ever have any questions
about anything feel free to dm me on
twitter or instagram or even on tick
tock either ask me if you know anything

fastest on that platform but i love you
