by Fulton Watch News Feed

MILTON, Ga. — A Milton woman reported to police Sept. 18 that she had paid $500 for four Morgan Wallen concert tickets but never received them.

The victim told police she spoke to a Facebook user to make the purchase and sent the money via Zelle. When she didn’t receive the tickets in her Ticketmaster account, she contacted the suspect, who told her to “calm down” and that she needed to send another $100, according to the police report.

The victim told police she then called the suspect, who used a woman’s name, to request the money back, and a man answered with a South African accent, refusing her request.

The victim did not send the $100, the police report said, and she notified her bank, which advised her to get a report.
