TICKETING: PF vs Geelong

[Parmalove 91]

As the MFC is allowing us to pass on our membership barcodes for WA Supporters to attend this Friday. Up to 8 tkts hit me up in inbox for my details. Only condition is I want a pic of you guys at the ground in the red and blue. I implore other members to offer the same.

Hmm I’m not sure that it’s a good idea…

I was sent this by the club. Is it legit or a scam?

I received similar emails for all of the memberships that I purchased.

8 person limit on tickets. also sends you your barcode. Seems legit.

A topic was just shut down because they mentioned this and was said we can’t endorse this. I just want to be sure

[faultydet 7,594]

trying to post a screenshot of my email but it says the file is too large.

 

Mine is not worded the same as yours and does not mention transferring the code to others. Only that I can purchase 8 tickets on each membership.

[Demonland 72,133]

Please keep all ticketing information in this thread and do not start new threads.

Any passing on of your member barcodes is done at your own risk.

[faultydet 7,594]

I seem to recall giving my barcodes to a poster on 'Land last time we made finals. Actually, I recall quite a decent discussion about it.

Never had any problems with the person I gave the code to either.

 

**If this is against club membership rules then it may be a figment of my imagination and should be ignored as completely untrue**

I'm guessing there are two versions:  1) for interstate members who may want to use their ticket rights and 2) one for Victorians like @Cassiewwho can't go and can transfer their rights. 

Edit:  Just saw your latest post:  In 2018 I also gave bar codes to other fans and never had any issues..

Ah yes of course.

That makes perfect sense. 

[bobby1554 1,244]

Happy to share my barcode, seeing as the Club have endorsed it. 

[GM11 776]

Not sure there's too much risk giving out barcodes as they are only valid for the current season.

Wouldn't be offering up Membership Nos. though.

[Deebymistake 779]

I have 2 barcodes.  They can be used to purchase member pre sale tickets, up to 8 tickets per barcode. I would be thrilled to give these barcodes away to Melbourne supporters who can get to the game.  I don't see anything illegal/dodgy in it.  The club is encouraging this.  The email says "If you know someone who would like to attend the game, you are welcome to pass on your membership barcode/s and allow them access to the member pre-sale when it opens"

Message me if you would like these barcodes.

[Olgreybeard49 242]

Add me to the list of supporter for 65 years who will miss being there but happy to hand on 2 barcodes = 16 possible tickets. PM me if you are an interstate supporter of the mighty Dees.

[Superunknown 4,216]

I’ve a barcode if someone wants it 

 

you just need to buy the ticket 

[Brownie 5,980]

I'm in NSW. Don't think we'll get to zero covid by Friday 

We have two memberships. Hit me up and definitely want a photo too.

Stand by for a message from Mr. E. McGuire of Toorak, who is seeking three tickets.

[Chook 15,012]

Me too. PM me for my barcode.

[danielE288 779]

Said it once will say it again lots of tix up for grabs PM me

[Dee Zephyr 19,267]

Awesome to see many offering their barcodes to get other Melbourne supporters to the prelim. Maybe keep one because I found a way to get some of you to Perth. 
We distribute to Dan Murphy’s and BWS all over the country and we ship to WA daily. If you’re not frightened of confined spaces I can hide you in a pallet with an authentic shipping label. PM me.

I must be smelling a rat. Tickitec has our barcodes and they have our bank details so that you can purchase the ticket. This is done when you log on. I know you can change the details of your bank account but they would have access to this.

I realise that but there is only  one barcode per person.

I got sent two barcodes, not sure why as I am in SA. When I purchased tickets for the Brisbane game I forwarded one of the barcodes to a mate who signed in with his details and had no issues.

Hence I cant see how someone could access your personal info without knowing your login details.

There was a legendary scam years ago where some fourex delivery drivers would hollow out the middle of pallets of slabs of beer. Take half a dozen out of each pallet, then deliver them to liquor barns. No-one would notice when they were plonked on the store floor as customers would just take the slabs off the pallet.

They were selling the extra slabs from under their house to mates.

3 days across the Nullarbor surrounded by slabs of beer Sounds feasible to me.
