Scammed out of Rocky Grass Tickets (posting in right place this time!)

Hey All,

It makes me sad to write this, but I was recently scammed out of four Rocky Grass Sunday tickets. I’m sharing because I don’t want others to be scammed by the same person. I was contacted by a Joseph Latson and had a great back and forth over email for several days before I transferred money to his fiance and a friend of hers, who are apparently working at the festival grounds. He was totally responsive until the money was transferred. I haven’t heard from him in 9 days, despite emailing him many times. I even tried to email the two people I sent the money to (his fiance and friend). Neither of them have responded either.

This was going to be my first year at Rocky Grass with my husband, two year old daughter, and a couple of friends. I’ve heard for many years from my cousin about what an amazing festival Rocky Grass is and how wonderful the people are. I probably put too much trust into this person and should’ve found a better way to make sure the sale was legit. But hopefully I can now at least save others from the same fate.

Good luck out there!

Oh I’m so sorry to hear this! I’m glad you’ve found this forum. Knock on wood, I’ve successfully purchased and sold here over the years. They are great about blocking shady characters!
