At the time of writing getsporting.com was still up and running and advertising tickets for dozens of Rugby World Cup games.
The squad were officially welcomed to the tournament on Monday evening at Hampton Court Palace, where the players and coaches received their tournament caps and participation medals.
“If you think you have become a victim of a Rugby World Cup ticketing fraud report it to Action Fraud”.
Rugby fans were previously warned by police about counterfeit tickets for the competition which are in circulation.
New Zealand-based Gillian Dailey ordered tickets in January for £830 to take her four-year-old daughter Lexi, but discovered last week she had been a victim of an unofficial website, getsporting.com, which is still live and offering tickets for matches.
On Monday Hannah Bardell, the MP for Livingston, has submitted an Early Days Motion asking Westminster to “condemn the banning of bagpipes from the upcoming Rugby World Cup“.
Can you buy official Rugby World Cup 2015 tickets, supporter tours or hospitality packages elsewhere, other than as outlined above?
Fans are being contacted in the name of (or using trademarks associated with) RWCL, Rugby World Cup 2015 and/or World Rugby (formerly known as the global Rugby Board).
They have been branded as “greedy” and “ridiculous” by sports fans who now face either leaving their newborns at home, trying to get hold of a coveted spare ticket or paying for a full-price adult seat for their babies in order to be at the kick off.
Superintendent Jo Edwards, spokeswoman for the policing of the Rugby World Cup, said people should avoid buying tickets from touts at all costs. ER2015 reserves the right to cancel without refund any tickets which ER2015 reasonably believes have been or are intended to be resold, offered, exposed or made available for sale, or transferred or otherwise disposed in breach of the ticketing terms and conditions.
