New ticket purchasing platform aims to prevent fraud, scalping
New ticket purchasing platform aims to prevent fraud, scalping
2025-11-03
To address the many issues with ticket validation, a digital ticketing platform is working with a tech company to develop a new system. Their patented technology creates a QR code after purchasing a ticket that changes randomly. At the event venue, the platform can be used without an internet connection, enhancing security against scalpers and fraudsters who use screenshots or recordings, or counterfeiting tickets.
K-pop stars often come to Taiwan to perform.
Fans get excited for every concert, but tickets can be hard to get. With scalpers running rampant, one digital ticketing platform is partnering with a tech company to develop a new anti-fraud ticketing system. They hope it can protect young people from getting swindled out of their hard-earned cash.

It might not be a lot of money, but it could be a kid’s entire life savings. Our system can also split tickets. As for transfers, it’s up to the organizer. If they permit transfers, it will be enabled. If not, then the feature is locked. Some tickets linked to the buyer’s identify prohibit transfers. But I believe they should allow it in the interest of fairness.
To strengthen protections against scalpers and fraud, the new ticketing platform uses a patented QR code that randomly updates. At the venue, attendees can access it without an internet connection. However, the screen will go black if anyone tries to screenshot, record, or photograph the code, and they will be denied entry.

Former National Police Agency director
Just maintaining safety and order requires deploying many police officers. They must first go online and search for scalpers and fraudsters to crack down on scalping and fraud. If someone is fooled and they report it, officers will investigate immediately.
Whenever a big-name artist comes to Taiwan, it becomes a nightmare for law enforcement, not to mention issues with ticketing, real-name registration, and arriving early. Digital tickets that require an internet connection tend to lag when there are many people accessing it. Screenshots and screen recordings can expose people to fraud, while physical tickets are easily misplaced. Counterfeit tickets, screenshots, and photographs of tickets also present numerous vulnerabilities.

Executive Yuan advisor
Before, we used real-name registration or paper tickets, which still had many drawbacks. This new system represents a significant technological breakthrough.
From fake investment websites, to phishing messages and AI voice scams, technological progress must be accompanied by trust and safeguards. Governments and private companies are constantly devising new methods to minimize risk of scalping and fraud.

防詐! "新數位票券平台"防盜版截圖.側錄阻絕黃牛
2025-11-03
為了真正解決現行票券驗證的多項痛點，數位票券平台跟電子資訊公司，合作推出新功能，以專利技術，讓民眾購買票券之後，產生的QR-code能隨時更換，到現場，不用網路也能操作，在防治黃牛、或詐騙隨意截圖、側錄，更安全防偽。
韓流K-pop來台開唱。
喜歡的歌手一開唱，每場都好想聽，但搶票難，加上黃牛猖獗，數位票券平台跟電子資訊公司合作，打造最新的防詐票券平台，就怕年輕人好不容易存錢買票，卻被騙光光。

“金額不多卻是小朋友一生的積蓄。我的系統也可以做分票，至於要怎麼轉讓，就要看主辦單位，如果主辦單位可以讓（購票者）轉讓，那就開放，如果不行那就把它鎖住，因為有些實名制是不能轉讓的，但是我希望實名制還是能夠轉讓，這樣才公平。”
新數位票券平台，為了強化防堵黃牛、也打詐，使用專利的隨機轉換的QR-code，到現場後，不用網路就能操作，但只要是截圖、螢幕錄影、或是手機翻拍、手機側錄，螢幕就會黑掉，通通無法成功進入會場。

“光是安全跟秩序就要動用那麼多警力。我們事先警察（還得）先上網，去搜尋（黃牛.詐騙）網路巡邏，要打擊這些黃牛票，打擊這些詐騙，萬一被騙了，民眾報案，我們要馬上立即去偵辦。”
每一次只要有大咖來，彷彿成了警察們的噩夢，以及現行票券常見問題，人工實名制，得提早到；需要使用網路的數位票券，人多就容易卡頓；截圖、側錄，也可能會落入詐騙風險，實體票券則是容易遺失，而且假證件、截圖、翻拍，存在很多漏洞。

“過去我們使用實名制，或者用紙本票券還是有很多弊病，這項新的系統是實質的技術突破。”
從假投資網站、釣魚簡訊、AI語音詐騙，科技進步，得伴隨信任跟防護，政府跟民間企業，不斷找到新方法，讓黃牛、詐騙問題降到最低。
