Liverpool reveal 75 lifetime bans imposed in ticket touting crackdown

Club say they shut down 100,000 fake ticketing accounts
2023-24 figures also include 136 indefinite suspensions

Liverpool have revealed they shut down 100,000 fake ticketing accounts and issued 75 lifetime bans and 136 indefinite suspensions last season as part of a crackdown on ticket touting.

The club said most of the bans and suspensions related to “unauthorised selling of season tickets, memberships or hospitality tickets”. In a warning to fans to buy tickets only through official channels, they said there had been an increase in the number of supporters being defrauded, particularly online.
