Hundreds of fans paid $100 for non-existent Trey Songz concert

Hundreds of Trey Songz fans have shelled out up to $100 a pop to see the rapper perform at Resorts World Casino in Queens Saturday.

There’s just one problem: there is no show.

Police sources told The Post that con artists promoted the phony concert on social media for weeks, and peddled fake passes to unsuspecting fans of Songz and Caribbean pop artist Julien Believe, who was also advertised to take the stage at the casino near Aqueduct.

“About 800 people responded to the posting, and an estimated 600 tickets were sold,” a police source said Friday, explaining that there was another event — featuring Lisa Lisa and her band Cult Jam — actually happening at that time.

“We’re going to have a detail assigned to the venue tomorrow,” another source added.

Sources said Resorts ultimately tipped off cops about the scam. The fraudsters had been offering VIP seats for $100 and general admission tickets for $50, cash only.

“Anything online that demands cash only you should avoid like the plague,” a police source said.
Anyone who responded to the ad was directed to a house on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn, the sources said.

“FRAUD ALERT . . . NEITHER RESORTS WORLD NOR TREY SONGZ HAS AUTHORIZED THIS EVENT,” the casino posted on its Web site. “PLEASE CONTACT THE POLICE IF YOU ARE A VICTIM.”

According to the bogus promotional flier, New Yorkers could buy advance tickets to the show by calling (310) 853-8209, a land-line phone number registered in California.

Calls to the number were not returned.

While Songz’s agent did not return a request for comment on Friday, Believe blasted the scammers earlier this week — saying it was sad that someone would stoop to that level.

“It’s unfortunate what some people use their precious time to do,” he told QNS.com. “It’s just wrong to take advantage of people like this. I hope they find the persons responsible and that situations like this never occur again!”

The city’s Department of Consumer Affairs recently warned concertgoers to be on the lookout for a new wave of fake tickets this summer, which come complete with mock Ticketmaster logos and barcodes.
