Experts say resale tickets are selling for as low as $350 on ticketmaster.com. However, if you’re in search of last-minute tickets, you should make sure to beware of scammers.

“Following some of the most exciting playoff games in recent memory, sales for the playoff games and this highly-anticipated matchup between Georgia and TCU have already surpassed last year’s three games on StubHub,” said Adam Budelli, spokesperson for StubHub. “Fans wanting to attend the game in LA can find tickets at various price points on StubHub, starting around $350.”

The FBI warns fans that low ticket prices are too good to be true.

Remember if you’ve already purchased tickets, avoid posting the barcode online showing off your tickets.

FBI officials say scammers are able to use the barcode to get access inside the game or duplicate the ticket and sell fake ones.
