Olympics ticket buyers beware

25th July 2008

The United States Olympic Committee has filed a lawsuit against two ticket sellers for duping would-be ticket buyers. The story, reported by New York Times, calls out http://beijing-2008tickets.com/ and http://www.beijingticketing.com/ for illegally using Olympic trademarks and failing to provide tickets to people who had paid for them.

The suit calls for the sites’ domain names to be impounded and http://beijing-2008tickets.com/ appears to be offline.

    I am afraid one of my friends was also a victim. He has bought two tickets for the opening ceremony, and he never received. The amount was about 5.000 USD. What would be the best way to get his money back?
