USAA shared the following tips for avoiding ticket scams:

• Buy from trusted vendors using websites like VerifiedTicketSource.com to verify registered ticket resellers. USAA says Ticketmaster and StubHub guarantee against fraudulent listings.
• When possible, use protected payment methods like credit cards. Payments made with cash, Zelle or wire transfers can be difficult to recover.
• Check for a refund policy and be wary of listings that aren't clear about the terms of the transaction.
• Watch out for phishing scams and suspicious links in texts or emails that can add malicious software to your device and allow scammers to track your activity online.
• If you're buying tickets on Facebook , check to see how recently the account was made. It's a red flag if the page was made in the last month or has very few posts.
• Finally, if the price is too good to be true , it probably is. Don't let scammers use a sense of urgency lure you into a bad deal.

To report possible fraud, contact your bank immediately and file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau .
