This situation calls to mind one from a few years ago, when a fly-by-night drag outfit was selling tickets to drag 'dinners' at Oasis in SoMa - something that Oasis never offered until the pandemic - without Oasis's knowledge. Right, and he won't know until Wednesday, the 8th, if some people unknowingly gave the scammers money and no one told them it was canceled/not a real event. 'If I hadn’t found out, we might’ve had people showing up expecting a 5 course wine dinner.' 'I imagine this isn’t an isolated event,' Faria tells BrokeAss. It took a couple days, but then he checked and saw that the event had disappeared - though having never heard back from Eventbrite, he wasn't sure if the company removed the listing, or the scammers just pulled it down themselves because people were asking questions. A post shared by Uma_Casa scammers also set up an account on Eventbrite using Uma Casa's name and info, making this look more legit.įaria tells BrokeAss Stuart that he immediately reached out to Eventbrite, and so did the customer, but of course there was no way to reach customer service directly.
