According to the consent order, Cartisim Corp. and Simon Ebrani ; Just In Time Tickets, Inc. and Evan Kohanian ; and Concert Specials, Inc. and Steven Ebrani, each purchased tens of thousands of tickets for performances and events and used hundreds of fictitious Ticketmaster accounts, credit cards, and IP addresses to avoid security measures and control systems implemented on the Ticketmaster websites. The defendants profited millions of dollars in revenue from sales made on secondary market ticketing platforms. The FTC determined that such actions prejudiced consumers, unjustly enriched defendants, and violated the BOTS Act and the FTC Act. The FTC entered orders against the defendants of more than $31 million, which are partially suspended due to the defendants' inability to pay. That said, defendants will cut checks to the FTC for civil penalties in the amount of $3.7 million.
