Gigi band vocalist and leading soloist Armand Maulana said he was tricked into buying tickets. He shared this story in a video on his personal YouTube channel, Armand Maulana, which was uploaded on Tuesday (16/4).
At the beginning of the video, Armand informs the audience that he wants to watch Hans Zimmer’s concert at the O2 Arena, London, England.
“Wanted to watch Hans Zimmer, coincidentally when there was a Hans Zimmer tour at the O2, I immediately grabbed the tickets,” said Armand.
For your information, Hans Zimmer is a music composer and film producer from Germany. The scoring music created by Hans can be enjoyed in famous films such as Gladiator, Man of Steel, and the Pirates of the Caribbean series.
“Never mind Hans Zimmer, he’s a legend in film music scoring,” said Armand while showing the situation at the O2 Arena.
However, Armand then revealed that he had experienced fraud. “Mess, mess. “I got scammed, I got scammed,” he complained.

Armand said he bought the ticket from the Viagogo ticket sales site. He twice bought tickets on Viagogo, Hans Zimmer and Ellie Goulding tickets. While Hans Zimmer’s tickets were a scam, Armand admitted that tickets for Ellie Goulding’s concert might be exchanged.
“So I bought it on Viagogo, I bought Hans Zimmer on Viagogo, tomorrow I want to watch Ellie Goulding on Viagogo, Ellie Goulding is safe,” said Armand.
“It turned out that when we went to the ticket counter, (Hans Zimmer’s ticket) was a scam, and it turns out there are a lot of methods involved. “So he keeps selling tickets, for example, I got hit,” he added.

Even so, Armand found a solution to his problem. The counter officer he met explained that there was a refund mechanism from Viagogo for fraudulent tickets.
“But the fun thing here was that he (the counter clerk) said that Viagogo would definitely change the refund, then the money would be returned to me. “Just fill in the administration, the important thing is that all the evidence is there, I said ‘all the evidence is there’, yes it will definitely come back,” explained Armand.
After finding this solution, this 53 year old vocalist finally bought a new ticket. “Finally I bought another ticket,” he concluded, while showing his new Hans Zimmer ticket to the camera. (Z-3)
