"Dozens of Billie Eilish fans have had their tickets stolen from their accounts
in what is an increasingly common occurrence when major artists come to
Australia.

Fans have reported having their online accounts breached and the details on
their tickets changed before being sold on.

In some cases, fans didn't realise their tickets were gone until they turned up
at the venue.

It's a year after Taylor Swift's record-breaking Eras tour, which became a
target for online thieves looking to take advantage of fans desperate to get
tickets."
