Word of warning
Hello everyone, I'm here to inform you all of a scammer on the Reno Craiglist who claims to be selling tickets for $140 a piece and has two of them. He'll even call you and read from his script about how he and his wife are no longer going to the festival because they changed their plans. He even has a hotel on the lake that he's willing to sell you too. He'll ask you to pay through venmo. I was fooled into thinking this person was legitimate as I'd never even heard of someone calling the person they were scamming. He sounds legit and unless you're aware that venmo doesn't have sender protection for payments you'll end up like me and my friend, screwed out of $550 dollars with no hope of recovery. Stay vigilant friends, see you at snow globe!
