Oasis tickets scam hits people in Birmingham

Available for over a year

A scam has been going around on social media lately where fraudsters are pretending to have Oasis tickets for sale. But, its quite a sophisticated scam, as people's Facebook accounts are getting hacked and or impersonated on new accounts making the tickets seem legitimate. One person who's been sharing their story with ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ WM is Olympic swimmer Oliver Morgan, who's also a student at the University of Birmingham. A fake account of him was made selling these tickets, and they used his university ID card to make it seem even more real. Credit: Getty Images
