Summary of case:

I sent $75 payment for purchase of an AXS ticket on 12/6 to ALLEYCVT at Mission Ballroom- a concert that was held that same evening. Alan presented himself as a third-party seller on Facebook who agreed to transfer the ticket to my AXS account after payment. I paid using PayPal Goods & Services for protection, as I have been scammed by third party sellers before and know that it is the only payment method with buyer coverage.

After I sent the payment, I provided the seller with my AXS email and he confirmed he received it and would transfer the ticket. The ticket was never transferred. The seller then deleted or disabled his Facebook account to block further communication.

I also reported him to PayPal, Facebook and AXS.
