World Cup fans warned about ticket scams, fake websites

Jun 2, 2026

Privacy Bee Founder and CEO Harry Maugans joined FOX 32 Chicago to discuss ticket scams targeting fans ahead of the World Cup.

During the segment, Harry explained how scammers use “typosquatting” to create convincing lookalike websites that imitate legitimate ticketing and event websites. These fraudulent sites can be used to steal money, payment information, and other personal information from people searching for tickets online.

The conversation also highlighted why fans should carefully check website addresses and verify that they are purchasing tickets through legitimate sources before providing payment or personal information.
