PETALING JAYA: As the demand for live concerts surges in the post-pandemic era, fans are turning to third-party sellers on platforms such as Carousell to secure tickets for sold-out shows.

Carousell says it complies with guidance from the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to moderate the sale of local concert tickets on its platform as part of an effort to protect its users from potential fraud.
