I dont kno, they are most likely fake. But I would have to see the tickets for myself. Give the Jets a call. Luckily they are free, ive heard so many stories of people getting legit ripped off.
was the company that gave you those tickets located in Nigeria and did they also offer you 5 million pounds if you send them a check for only $40,000 bucks to facilitate the transfer of funds??
Keep us posted on what happens, it will be interesting either way. I would go down the pipeline and find out which client gave you those tickets and let them know this is happening, if someone hasn't already. I bet the guys that got repelled at the gate made some interesting phone calls this morning.
I was thinking that also but when the OP stated that his co-workers were denied access last night, I figure that was not the case.
He won't get any information from the ticket office, privacy concerns. All he can do is go as early as possible and hope.
9999999 on the ticket are tickets that were provided by the Jets ticket office that aren't attached to an account. I have a Jets vs Redskins ticket that I was given that has 9999999 on it.
What doesn't make sense to me is, why would someone go through the trouble of perfectly counterfeiting tickets (makingthem lookreal) and then put something as bogus-looking as 999999 on them? You need to contact the Jets ticket office and get through to someone who doesn't have their head up their ass. Tell them you want to report ticket fraud... tell the little twit wth the canned corporate answers that unless she gets someone on the phone from high up in the ticet office immediately, she could be making a huge career mistake. Tell the office manager what happened... you may wind up getting some really nice comps for alerting them to the scam! I'm sure SOMEBODY in the ticket office is in charge of hunting down this shit and prosecuting to the fullest extent of the law. They don't want this anymore than we do. Nothing surprises me anymore however, with any of this stuff. The entire new stadium thing is one huge clusterfuck. They got a lot wrong, IMO.
I'm suspecting something like this as a possible answer. Nobody goes throug the trouble of carefully counterfeiting something and then putting obvious shit on it that calls your attention to a possible counterfeit, The tickets could have been legit when they came from the Jets to the 1st company's My Account. Then a couple of douchekits from the office thought it would be pretty funny to email them to somebody and give away the hard copies. The hard copies are worthless the minute the replacements are printed.
