A screenshot of a purported VIP ticket to Taylor Swift's concert sent by the concert cheat to a woman who had agreed to buy three tickets.A man who was arrested after he was involved in a Taylor Swift concert scam claimed he was a fan of the American pop star during investigations.

Swift’s Eras Tour concert at the National Stadium was held over six nights from March 2 to 9 and attracted more than 368,000 concertgoers. It has also been linked to at least 960 victims of ticket scams. Said DPP Ang: “The screenshot ticket was a false Singapore Eras Tour ticket – March 4, 2024, was a Monday, and not a Saturday.

At around 5.30pm, Yang noticed there were no security officers at three of the six turnstiles. DPP Ang said this was because three of the four security officers stationed at the gate were responding to a commotion nearby. Yang approached the lone security officer at one of the turnstiles at the gate and asked for directions to another gate.

After the women entered the National Stadium, Li and Yang walked away. But the concertgoer who had been tailgated told a security officer what happened.
