Tourists in Berlin: Beware of questionable ticket offers!
Tourism is booming in the pulsating metropolis of Berlin: Over 30 million overnight stays were recorded in 2024, as "Visit Berlin" reports. Of course, this also noted the Berlin Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG), who registered 1.12 billion passenger trips. But there is a problem for many tourists: Where do I buy my ticket for local public transport without encountering any dubious offers? An unsettled traveler asks this question on Reddit. He wonders via a website that supposedly sells tickets, but shows many warning signals, such as typing errors and missing official symbols. There are also concerns whether a canted QR code is actually valid.
The concern of the traveler is justified, but as "Berlin Live" clarifies, the websites that have arisen are not fraud. Numerous partner pages offer public transport tickets in connection with other services, but tourists should be careful before buying. It is recommended to check the seriousness of the providers via platforms such as "Trustpilot". It is ideal to buy tickets directly from official providers or on ticket machines in train stations to make sure that you do not fall for fraudsters. The safety of the travelers comes first.
