As the buzz continues for that big Elton John concert in May, fans are being warned to be smart when shopping for their tickets.

Online scams have been popping up claiming to have tickets for sale to the upcoming show at the Covelli Centre. Truth of the matter is, tickets are not on sale yet, so beware of any site that purports to have them now. Some have the prices marked up considerably, going for more than $1,000 a pop.

Tickets officially go on sale this Friday, March 12. The concert is May 1.

Could be a scam, but probably not. This is common for every major concert, at every major venue. Insiders get many good tickets from Ticketmaster before they go on sale to the public, and they resell them at huge markups.
