Consumer Rights · Scam Alert · September 24, 2026

Oasis kick their 2027 tour off with five nights at Celtic Park, but the band have warned fans of potential ticket scams as codes begin to be emailed.

The Story So Far

A further four nights will take place at the venue on May 23, 25, 28 and 29. The Gallagher brothers then head to Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium for eleven gigs before heading to Munich for two nights.^[1]

But Oasis have now issued a scam alert, warning fans to be aware of ticket fraud as unique ticket codes begin to arrive in fans’ email inboxes. Those who wished to be among the lucky had to have signed up via a link by September 17.^[1]

The band have released a statement via their social media channels, stating that some people may attempt to impersonate the band, its mailing list or official ticketing partners. They have reiterated that any genuine code will only be sent from oasis@openstageit.com, and will be linked to the name and email address used to register, and will contain a unique, personal and non-transferable code directing recipients to Ticketmaster.^[1]

Fans have been warned not to trust anyone offering to sell a code, with Oasis stating that any code offered for sale is fraudulent and will not enable fans to purchase tickets.^[1]

How to Spot & Avoid This Scam

This is what the approach actually looks like — study it before the list below:

How to Protect Yourself

• Verify any unexpected contact through a phone number or website you already know is real — never one the message itself provides.

If You Already Clicked or Replied

Responding to one of these is not the end of the story, and the first hour matters more than the mistake does. Work down this list in order:

1. Stop communicating with the sender. Do not send a final message explaining that you know it is a scam — that only confirms the number or address is live.
2. If you shared a password, change it everywhere you reused it, starting with email and banking. Reused passwords are how one disclosure becomes several.
3. If you shared card or bank details, call the number printed on your card and ask for the account to be flagged and reissued.
4. If you sent money by gift card, call the card issuer immediately — some balances can be frozen if the cards have not been drained yet.
5. Turn on two-factor authentication where it is offered, so a stolen password alone is not enough to get in.
6. Report it (see below). Reports are what let investigators connect one message to a wider campaign.

Where to Report It

• Federal Trade Commission — reportfraud.ftc.gov is the FTC’s own intake for fraud reports.^[2]
• FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center — ic3.gov handles internet-enabled crime, including losses already incurred.^[3]
• The impersonated organization — most banks and large platforms run their own abuse address; reporting there is what gets a fraudulent number or domain taken down.

What’s Disputed or Unconfirmed

This post reports what celtsarehere.com published and what a fixed detector matched in that text. It does not independently confirm the scale of the campaign, attribute it to anyone, or verify any figure the source reports. The example below the fold is a reconstruction built from the same reporting, not a captured message — so treat its wording as illustrative of the pattern, not as evidence of a specific message anyone received.

Kemetic Minds Analysis

Scam reporting tends to arrive as a list of things not to do, which puts the burden entirely on the person being targeted. The more useful read is structural: every tactic in the table above exists because it reliably beats a specific human default — trusting a familiar logo, acting fast under a deadline, believing a stranger who already seems to know something about you.

None of those defaults are failures of intelligence. They are the same instincts that make ordinary transactions possible. That is why “just be careful” does not work as advice, and why the one habit worth building is mechanical rather than judgmental: when a message asks for money, credentials, or speed, verify it through a channel you chose yourself. That single rule defeats every tactic listed above, without requiring you to spot which one you are looking at.
