Possible Scam Websites

If you use unofficial outlets you take the risk of being ripped off. You may not find out you have been ripped off until you realise that your tickets have failed to arrive in the post. If you do purchase tickets from an unofficial source V Festival will not be able to assist you. The only advice we can give you is to contact your bank to try and stop the payment.
To avoid you from being ripped off, we have listed below unofficial and potential scam websites that have cropped up on the Internet. We strongly advise you NOT to use these outlets; you cannot link through to these outlets from vfestival.com (this website).

I don't understand why people don't just use the official site? Or do they think these random ones are official?
