Jail Time for eBay Ticket Scam
A YOUNG man has been locked-up for six months for selling non-existent tickets to online music fans.
Adam Cuthbertson, 21, of Penarth Road, Cardiff, was caught out when police arrived at his home following complaints from shoppers over the tickets sold on auction site eBay.
He had been banned from the site, but changed his user name each time he entered it to take money for shows by artists like Bon Jovi and George Michael.
Prosecutor Byron Broadstock told Newport Crown Court that Cuthbertson initially claimed he was a victim himself and had been helping a friend.
