Why do ticket scammers claim to have more inventory than they actually purchased?

Question

## Ticket scammers claim larger inventory to look credible, create false urgency, and sell inflated tickets to more buyers.

Accepted Answer

Ticket scammers often exaggerate how many tickets they have because a bigger claimed inventory makes the offer look real and trustworthy. In the BTS Kuala Lumpur case, Paramananthan Rajagopal said scammers may talk about having an insider and say almost anything to win trust, while some may buy only four or eight tickets and then claim they have 40 in hand.
