Following her successful Renaissance tour, demand for Cowboy Carter tickets has overwhelmed Ticketmaster's systems, resulting in extended wait times. While fans report site crashes, Ticketmaster denies any system failures and advises using a single browser tab, clearing cookies, and avoiding VPNs.
Security experts warn fans about potential ticket scams, particularly on social media platforms. Tony Neate, CEO of Get Safe Online, emphasizes the importance of purchasing through regulated marketplaces that offer consumer protections and money-back guarantees.
Ticketmaster specifically warns against "speculative listing," where unofficial sellers list tickets before actually possessing them. This practice is illegal in many states and considered fraudulent.
