The Met's Operation Podium urges you to follow this advice to protect you, your

TICKETS:
If you're buying a ticket for the Games:
•
Applications for tickets to the London 2012 Paralympic Games open at 9am on Friday 9 September. You have until 6pm on Monday 26 September to apply for tickets through the London 2012 website as it is not first come first served.
•
Only apply for a ticket online through the London 2012 website at www.tickets.london2012.com as this is the official site for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
•
You can also get a paper application from any Lloyds TSB branch, Bank of Scotland branch in Scotland or from any public library in Northern Ireland.
•
The UK official application process for Olympic tickets is now closed. You should check the London 2012 site for details of future ticket sales and the latest information about the Games and the London 2012 website checker.
•
Don't buy a ticket from an unauthorised website or tout. You risk being
scammed, and not getting the ticket you wanted and paid for.

•
If you get a ticket for an event you can't attend, London 2012 will operate an official ticket resale programme. You should check the London 2012 website for further information about this.
•
If you find tickets for sale from any unauthorised source at anytime, don't buy them. They are not genuine. Report it to www.actionfraud.org.uk, London 2012 via brandprotection@london2012.com or your local police force.
