Because if security is lax all the efforts GFL put into preventing touting are totally wasted. Anyone who's happy with lax security is effectively endorsing touting which IMO makes them even more of a w*nker than any security workers :angry:

Bollocks they scrutinise them. I know personally of two people who have got in with ease. One case was my 10 stone cousin getting in on his 20 stone friend's ticket!

Human beings don't scrutinise tickets, bus passes etc. Christ I went on holiday and back with my passport photograph glued back on! That's four times my passport was looked at and they didn't even notice the obvious glue stains.

Don't believe the naysayers, well worth the risk!

I have a chance to buy someone's ticket and they're about 9 years older than me.. We're both blonde, same colour eyes etc.. But I'm worried about it. I'd be travelling from Finland, is it worth taking the risk?

I have heard accounts of people without a ticket at all willing to pay £100 to the Oxfam worker on the gate and being successful. Obviously that is unbelievably risky but if I was an Oxfam worker and offered that sum I would definitely let in the odd person who had the audacity to try it.
