There is a new theme park ticket scam, where park employees and cast members are being targeted.
An elaborate operation that preys on unsuspecting employees to buy discounted tickets. It’s a plan that recently cost two Disney cast members their jobs, but it could have more consequences for guests buying tickets through unreliable sources.
Now, it seems, some of those running ticket scams are targeting Disney employees to pick up tickets at discounted prices.
In 2011, the state banned the resale of partially used multi day park passes, but not unused single-day passes.
The move didn’t eliminate the problem; it only changed the focus, with scammers now going after unsuspecting employees.
Employee tickets are not supposed to be resold, visitors should only buy from licensed dealers to avoid being left at the gate with no way in and no way to get their cash back.
While employees are not allowed to resell Disney tickets, private citizens can, but only unused passes.
Anyone caught dealing in partially used passes faces a second-degree misdemeanor.
I know cheaper tickets are very enticing, but you know what they say if it’s too good to be true it probably is! Only buy your tickets from Disney directly or a reputable ticket agent. Google is your friend.
Thank you Disney Dining for the info.
Wishing you Faith, Trust, and Pixie Dust
