Google fail on tickets

GOOGLE has failed to take action against a “fraudulent” ticket resale site that has refused to reveal the massive mark-ups it charges.

The search engine vowed to stop advertising Viagogo unless it “prominently” displayed tickets’ face value by the end of last month.

Viagogo pays millions to appear first on internet searches for tickets. Its top-ranking dupes many into thinking it is the official ticket seller.

Yesterday, Google continued to pocket cash from Viagogo. Google said it did not know when it would act.
