Beware of Ticket Scammers

Written By Ryan Krellwitz

There have been reports of accounts messaging members of our community on Facebook and elsewhere in an attempt to initiate a scam.

Please keep the following in mind when considering buying or selling tickets from people you don’t know:

  • Use the Tixel escrow service to conduct ticket exchanges: https://soakpdx.com/ticket-transfers

  • If the seller is suggesting using any other form of payment outside of Tixel (venmo, paypal, etc) then they are probably trying to scam you.

  • Ticket sales were limited to 2 per person. If anybody is claiming to have 4 tickets for sale they are probably trying to scam you.

  • Ensure the person is a member of the official SOAK*2023 Ticket Exchange group. Members here are lightly vetted and removed by admins if they are trying to execute scams.

If someone messages you attempting to buy/sell you tickets and you find the interaction suspicious in any way, please bring it to our attention by emailing producers@soakpdx.com.

Stay vigilant and good luck!
