Detect counterfeit ticket scams and fake event pages

Monitor for fake ticket listings, counterfeit event pages, fan scams, and payment-diversion campaigns that abuse your event brand or artist likeness.

The problem

Counterfeit tickets and fake event pages defraud fans, drive chargebacks, and damage event reputation — often spiking around announcements and on-sale windows.

Why it matters now

AI-generated event pages and social ads make scam infrastructure easy to spin up at scale, particularly for tours, sports finals, and large conferences.
