The plaintiffs are seeking a civil fine of $2,500 per violation. Obtained by Rolling Stone, the lawsuit alleges that Ticketmaster's parent company, Live Nation Entertainment Inc., engaged in fraud, price-fixing and antitrust-law violations while selling advance tickets to the pop superstar's Eras Tour. The filing also accuses Ticketmaster of "intentionally and purposefully mislead[ing] ticket purchasers by allowing scalpers and bots access to TaylorSwiftTix presale." In the wake of the pre-sale fiasco, many accused Ticketmaster of unfairly monopolizing the ticket market — which allegedly forced "fans to buy more expensive tickets that Ticketmaster gets additional fees from every time the tickets are resold," the lawsuit states.
