: Pete Mr Reg Walker, an industry insider who was speaking at the UK Festival Awards and Conference in London on Thursday, said that the thousands of fake tickets and wrist bands are likely to be in circulation next summer. He believes that friminals even had “test runs” this year to ensure that their mercandise would get through the scrutiny of the festival security.
Its a scary notion because as a none-expert in tickets, how does Joe Public tell the fake from the real thing? And what kind of come back do we have when buying these things online? Not a lot I would imagine.
