(antiMusic) Imagine buying a ticket to a music festival, going to gate and being denied entry because your ticket is counterfeit. Some fans suffered such a fate last year in the UK, but the authorities have tracked down the fraudsters and they will now face the long arm of the law. (unless they get Pete Doherty's judge)

According to the BBC "Six people have been charged with conspiracy to defraud the Isle of Wight Festival by trying to sell fake tickets and wristbands.

"A police investigation was launched after alleged counterfeit tickets were discovered at last year's event, which was headlined by the Rolling Stones." - Read the full BBC report
