Toronto police have made a second arrest in connection with a ticket scam targeting Taylor Swift fans. The initial suspect, a 44-year-old woman from Burlington, Ontario, now faces over 80 charges, including fraud. Authorities believe the scammer, using the alias 'Denise Blackhawk', sold fraudulent tickets on Facebook Marketplace for Swift's Toronto concerts last year.
Toronto police say a Burlington, Ont., woman is facing additional charges and a second person has been arrested in an alleged Taylor Swift concert ticket scam that saw 28 people purchase nearly $70,000 worth of fraudulent tickets.
Police allege the scammer told buyers the tickets would not be released until days before the concert, but on the day of the show, no tickets had been transferred. They allege buyers were told their money was gone when they asked for a refund.
