Scam or Genuine Website - sometime it is hard to guess..??

Nowadays lots of online scams are going on net they take money from you and run away & as you know the very nature of the Internet, so it is very difficult to track these scam artist. These scammers use free tools provided by internet only, like free ads or Mail phishing tricks that bid low-priced or cheap deals sales of tickets to prestigious events as well as blogs too for scamming people they even use this blogs to spoil image of genuine site I’ll advice people beware of this kind of scams, scam blogs as well as scam artist.

I saw some scam blogs about Euroteam & I thought its scam but before few days one of my friend purchase tickets from them and got all tickets on time. I think even Euroteam scam is might done by some scam artist so I request people be careful from this scam artist.

I would like share my own experience how I got scammed for Tickets.

I have just made a horrible fault, I was trying to purchase tickets for the rugby world cup & I logged on to the site: rugbyworldcup2011.com, though this was not the authorized site. The authorized site is rugbyworldcup.com. It acted as well as worked the similar way to the way I selected the matches plus venues, with authentication mail.

I had estimated to pay €1200 but instead figures in a similar way to these in dollars come out & I thought it was okay. I dint notice & what I was actually approving to, that was 4 times this amount.

I don’t know from where these scam artists operate as well as do not have match tickets. It was scam. I have paid for tickets that they don’t contain. I have written to the bank about this scam with all information & correspondence and a wrangle has been placed on the transaction.

Well, I completely agree that was my mistake & I took the eye off the ball I should first check if site is genuine or it is scam. However, the bank has told me that if the tickets are not delivered I’ll get repayment. The tickets are not due for delivery for one more year, so I’ll have to wait for that and I’m still waiting. If somebody has any suggestion on this it would be appreciated.

Some time it’s hard to guess that site is genuine or scam..??
