Fake Ticket Inspector Caught on Trains | Melbourne News
Description
A shady imposter is circling Melbourne’s trains, pretending to be a ticket inspector to swipe payment app details — but V/Line confirms no such checks exist, and real staff always wear uniforms. One commuter spotted the crook hopping between trains, acting shifty, and tipped off a conductor — leading to a police report. With over half a million rides already paid via tap, the warning is clear: stay alert — your phone’s not a ticket, and your data’s not for scanning.
