Beijing police have urged Lionel Messi fans not to be cheated by expensive scams after the soccer superstar landed in China last weekend.
Lionel Messi and his Argentina teammates were temporarily “trapped” in their Beijing hotel at the weekend after large numbers of fans gathered outside to see the star, Chinese state media reported, as police warned of scammers attempting to cash in on “Messi mania.
Despite costing up to $4,800 yuan , tickets for the match Thursday at the 68,000-capacity Workers Stadium sold out within 20 minutes, according to Global Times, with resale sites advertising tickets for multiple times their face value. Beijing police meanwhile have warned fans to beware of scams after an ad went viral on Weibo that falsely claimed to offer dinner with Messi for 300,000 yuan per person.
