A five-man ring pocketed thousands of dollars by peddling fake tickets to musicals, concerts and hockey games to unsuspecting victims, Manhattan prose🔜cutors said Friday.
The 💜victims saw the bogus ducats on Craigslist and Facebook, and forked over around $200 per seat.
They hoped to see the musical “Dear Evan Hansen,” a Bruno Mars concert and Rangers and Devils games, only to be turned away on arrival.
The highly organized ring members divided up the labor and the profits🌞, prosecutors said.
But they may end up foiled by their own good record keeping; warrant🌳s recovered incriminating ledgers detailing the sales, prosecutors said.
Arrested were Isaac Chestnut, 27, Andy Quezada, 30, and Rahiem Watts, 29, all of the Bronx, and Bruno Lisa, 34, and Matthew Hamilton, 27, bot🐻h of Manhattan.
