My College Got Scammed By Fake Nicki Minaj Promoter!

So the MSU student body was told by the Student Government Association, as well as the Programming Board that Nicki Minaj would be performing at our Fall Fest 2010 on October 08th. Students were so excited and determined to get their tickets, that many of them camped out overnight outside where the tickets were sold today at 8:30am. Since we were told that we would be allowed to bring guests,there were also people who don't go to MSU camping out too. While on my way to class this morning, I saw the extremely long line and decided that AIN'T NO WAY i'm waiting in it and missing class to pay 20 bucks to see Nicki Minaj, though I think her verses are sick.

So I'm sitting in class tweeting about the line, when I saw the following tweets from Nicki Minaj:

Apparently, the school booked Nicki through a fake agency who stole approximately $35,000 of our money! We got S C A M M E D. Yet, even with knowledge of this news, people still stood in that line with hopes that Nicki's agency had not yet informed her about the concert and she is still scheduled to perform. Others on the other hand, demanded a refund. I feel bad for the people who waited hours in that line hoping to get a golden ticket *shakes head* The SGA has given Nicki's camp the name of the fake promoter and agency and she psoted it on her twitter, suggesting legal action.


WOW-my college became a hot topic on twitter and the internet in general in a matter of minutes. MTV even posted an article about this scam, as well as other music websites like billboard.com who's got us confused with Michigan State University >.< I hope they catch that asshole scam artist and throw him in jail! Stealing from struggling college students? Really? SHAME! And apparently, we are not the only University that got scammed.
