Have had season tickets for years, but live OOS and have kids involved with sports, so don't make it to every game. Usually pick out 3 or 4 home games per year to attend and sell the rest on StubHub. Have noticed the past couple of years most of my tickets being bought up by very generic sounding names with very specific e-mail addresses.... will be something like Brad Johnson, with an e-mail address of bradjohnson845628@capitalinvestmentgroup.com.

It's pretty obvious these aren't real people, but I'm trying to figure out the scam here. It isn't me, because the tickets get transferred and I get paid. Are they scamming StubHub somehow? Or, is it professional scalpers using bogus identities to avoid paying taxes? That's the only possibility that remotely makes sense to me, but it seems awfully high risk for such a limited reward.
