A highly informative sports event schedule will offer you to purchase tickets to all Olympic Games events, and if you wanted to attend, for example, Athletics Day 1, you would be asked to spend from £227 to £499 (VIP Gold ticket) – prices, which do not differ much from the original ones.
To purchase these tickets, you would be asked to register with the bogus website, and you should not even think about proceeding with that, because this would help schemers to collect your name, telephone, mobile, e-mail and other sensitive information. If you do not want your name to get pined to other cyber crooks’ scams, do not share any of your data, leave the website and hope that you will be able to acquire tickets to the Olympics happening in 2016 in Rio de Janeiro! Also note that this Live Olympic Tickets scam is not the only one traveling around the Internet, and you should be very careful, when selecting the sources you could trust with your privacy.
