Thai Influencer Goes Viral For Heartbreaking Taylor Swift “The Eras Tour” Scam Experience
A Thai influencer had her hopes and dreams crushed in the blink of an eye.
Natrada “Pluem” Thammapanya, known among her 250,000 Instagram followers as Chopluem, was one of 368,000 Taylor Swift fans who attended The Eras Tour in Singapore. She had planned to attend the second day of the concert with her friend.
On March 3, one of her reels went viral for unfortunate reasons. It featured the two of them crying outside National Stadium while singing along to the soundtrack of “Cruel Summer,” one of Taylor Swift’s songs from her Lover album. They were all dolled up in their concert outfits but could not enter the venue. In her caption, she revealed that the tickets she bought turned out to be fake.
Buying a fake ticket for the first time in my life. I’m shocked, and I don’t know what to say. I did not expect this to happen. My friend and I were looking forward to seeing the show for nearly a year. We wanted to sing this song together. Many people were deceived just like us.

Chopluem bought them from a reputable Twitter account with over 13,000 followers. Upon entering the stadium, she and her friend handed their tickets to the staff to scan but were unable to enter as the QR codes beeped red. The staff investigated and soon found out that the seats were already taken by two Thai fans. Upon further inspection, a total of eight people were found to have access to the same two tickets.
The staff opted to cancel the seats in order to be fair to all eight victims.
Her story had a fortunately happy ending. She returned to Singapore a few days later and was able to attend the fifth day of The Eras Tour in one of the floor sections, getting a close-up view of her idol.
Needless to say, she was ecstatic. It was not mentioned how she was able to find new tickets, but it was clear that she was immensely grateful for them.
10 pics couldn’t express how much i deeply felt tonight.
