Why are scalpers fraudsters?

Scalpers are commonly known as scalpers. The jargon of scalpers in Beijing is patchwork, and Shanghainese call it scalpers. In recent years, Shanghai dialect is also called "piling mildew", and there is a more vivid metaphor to call this kind of people "ticket bugs".

The coinage of scalpers, scalpers and judicial scalpers may have originated from the scene of a group of people snapping up materials or tickets in the underground economy, just like a group of scalpers, and then they are called "judicial scalpers" because of their outstanding intermediary significance. But the word "scalper" has another meaning besides "scalper", that is, people also use "scalper" when they stand up. For example, when we make an appointment with someone, but the other person fails to keep the appointment on time, then we can say, "He is a scalper." "Niu" in this sense is the usage of Wu dialect. According to the Chinese Dialect Dictionary, when people "can't keep their promises because of their poor sense of responsibility",

It can be said that it is a "yellow cow." In many dialects of Chinese, things that are not completed in the expected way are called "Huang". For example, after playing a game of mahjong, but no one is playing cards, say "this circle is yellow"; Singing opera is out of tune, that is to say, "this play is yellow." Bad faith is called "yellow cattle", which is close to the meaning of "yellow", but it still needs further discussion.

In the old society, rickshaws wore yellow vests, so they usually traveled in this kind of car. Because of its low price, people call it a "scalper" car. Later, traffic developed, but train tickets and bus tickets were hard to buy. Because rickshaw drivers often run in railway stations and bus stations, they are familiar with selling tickets at stations, and some people ask them for help to buy tickets. rickshaw drivers also get a certain tip, but not much. In fact, there were "scalpers" in the old society, but unlike now, they have developed into an industry, colluding with each other inside and outside, collecting money crazily and harming the interests of ordinary people. Supposedly, with the development of society, it should be convenient to travel. The reason why the "yellow cattle" can't fight is because of the interests.

Cattle are mostly local ruffians and unemployed people in cities.

On the one hand, we use various interests to buy tickets in large quantities, on the other hand, we sell tickets in large quantities at high prices. More tragically, some scalpers cried for various reasons, and they only went to get tickets because they were forced to do so. Cattle often organize a large number of groups, monopolize the ticket source through illegal means and squeeze competitors, which often leads to group fights and fights. Caused a lot of public security problems. Every year, migrant workers who cannot return home because of scalpers have to use their hard-earned money to buy high-priced tickets. According to the estimation of western journalists, in 2005, the total number of migrant workers and their families in China who could not return home due to cattle was close to10 million.
