Be aware that fraudsters are actively using social media to source pictures of event tickets that people have posted on their accounts.
People who take pictures of their tickets before they actually attend an event, and post them on social media website, are actively being sought by fraudsters. The fraudsters are then using these pictures to make counterfeit copies.
Fans may not be aware of how much information there actually is on a ticket; this usually includes their name and the barcode used to gain entry to the venue.
Fraudsters copy the barcode from the tickets and make dozens of counterfeit copies which are then sold to other victims through so called “safe” ticket resale platforms. If you buy one of these tickets you will be refused entry into a venue.
To prevent this from happening it is essential that fans do not post pictures of tickets before events anywhere on the internet.
Protect yourself against ticket fraud:
Free Spring biker ride out – Sunday 19 April 2015
With Spring here motorcyclists are keen to dust the cobwebs off and get that bike out of the garage. But it’s not just the bike that may need a Spring clean. A winter of not riding may leave riders a little rusty.
Dorset County Council’s road safety team have teamed up with Dorchester and West Dorset Advanced Motorcyclists (DWDAM) to offer a free talk and ride out to help bikers brush-up their technique.
Starting at the SafeWise centre at Weymouth’s fire station the ride out is along the scenic coast road to West Bay and back. The talk will take place at the centre and lunch will also be provided.
Booking is essential to secure a place. Book online at www.dorsetforyou.com/roadsafety/motorcycling/spring-ride-out or call the road safety team on 01305 224558.

We are sending this message to advise you of three crimes in the Fontmell Magna area of North Dorset.
There have been two attempts to steal equipment from sheds and outbuildings, the first being in West Street, sometime between Friday 20th March and Saturday 28th March. A metal latch has been cut and bent. the property owners are unsure at this time if anything has been stolen. Crime number 013233
The second was in North Street and has occurred sometime between Saturday 28th and Monday 30th March. Very similar circumstances where the door has been jemmied open but again, nothing appears to be stolen. Crime number 013371
These are causing us great concerns due to the number of outbuilding breaks recently but we are sorry to have to report there has also been a break to a property in Lurmer Street, Fontmell Magna, Crime number 013585. The residents had been away from the property between 26th March, returning on 31st March to discover intruders had gained access to the house.
Dorset Police are requesting if anyone believes they have seen any suspicious activity in the area over the past few days, they contact us, quoting any of the crime numbers stated above.
We would like to reassure all our residents that officers are investigating these offences but if anyone would like any security advice or further reassurance, you can call us on 101 and we can arrange for police staff to attend at a mutually convenient time to discuss any concerns you may have.
Thank you,
North Dorset Safer Neighbourhood Teams.
Fraudsters regularly offer tickets for music festivals and popular sporting events scheduled for the summer. The tickets are generally offered for sale in the spring time and as the official tickets are sometimes not released until weeks before the event, potential victims don’t realise they have been deceived for some time after parting with their hard earned money. The internet is the most common place where this occurs; on platforms such as bogus websites, online auction sites and via social media.
Protect yourself:
