The Dayton Daily News, Springfield News-Sun and Journal-News want to talk to people in the Southwest Ohio coverage area who have experienced a scam when purchasing tickets to see entertainment and arts shows or events.

Have you made a purchase only to get to the venue and discover your tickets were bad? Maybe you got to your seats and someone else had tickets for the same seats. Perhaps you manage a venue that has dealt with an uptick in fraudulent tickets being sold and your customers being duped by outside sellers.

Whatever the case, we would like to know. We may be in contact with you for a story.
