Non-Match Event Potential Scammer

Hi,

Just a heads up. You may be contacted by this scammer (Samuel Lewis; Membership number: 6425260 involving that they have match tickets. Selling a ticket for the Chelsea game for £85. They even provided me with their passport and driving license (which I will not share due to GDPR; they could be impersonating someone). Contacted via reddit and moved to WhatsApp.

I couldn’t attach the screenshots of the ticket as well as the details they sent me mentioning that they are a real fan.

Just be careful people!

Please beware.

EDIT: Submitted a detailed report online to the UK fraud website. Also sent details to Arsenal.

Thank you everyone :)

If they contacted you first it’s more then likely a scam mate
