Kobi Peretz Warns Fans Against Unauthorized Ticket Resale Sites
Fans purchasing tickets for Kobi Peretz's upcoming Tel Aviv concert fell victim to unauthorized resale sites charging inflated fees, prompting warnings from the singer.
Fans looking forward to Kobi Peretz's upcoming performance at the Menora Mivtachim Arena in Tel Aviv on November 17 have faced unexpected distress due to unauthorized ticket resale platforms charging exorbitant fees.
The troubling phenomenon came to light when a dedicated fan of over three and a half years reached out directly to Inbal Peretz, the singer's wife and personal manager.
The fan explained that a simple web search led her to the international resale platform Viagogo. Expecting to pay 240 shekels per ticket, her credit card was ultimately charged 652.23 shekels, which included nearly 189 shekels in steep brokerage and service fees.
Following the incident, Inbal Peretz stepped in to calm the situation and gifted the distressed fan a pair of production tickets, while urging her to pursue a refund through her credit card company.
In response to the growing issue, Kobi Peretz issued a direct warning to his audience through local media reports, emphasizing that official tickets are sold exclusively through authorized channels and advising fans to avoid unauthorized secondary marketplaces.
