A Scottish man, Paul Reidy, has appeared in court in Scotland accused of selling three music fans fake VIP tickets to last weekend's T In The Park, and for then posing as a security guard at the festival so he could 'escort' the ticket holders onto the site. Reidy is accused of selling the 'tickets' for £300 each; he pleaded not guilty to the charges made against him, and will go on trial at Perth Sheriff Court in October. Meanwhile in London hundreds of fans were reportedly turned away from Live Nation's Wireless Festival this weekend, also having been sold fake tickets, seemingly via websites like Gumtree and eBay.
Those affected by fakes at Wireless has been asked to contact the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau through its website www.nfib.police.uk.
