Fanki Says Mexico–Portugal Tickets Are Sold Out After Glitch-Plagued General Sale

Profeco has demanded verifiable details from Fanki after widespread complaints about the sales process.

Overview

  • Fanki posted that the virtual line was closed and the event was sold out following the Dec. 13 general sale for the Estadio Banorte reopening match.
  • Fans reported virtual-queue irregularities, repeated 503/504 errors and payment rejections that sent them back to the queue without completing purchases.
  • Mexico’s consumer watchdog Profeco requested clear, precise and verifiable information from Fanki and issued advisories to buyers.
  • Clone sites imitating the vendor, including fanky.com.mx, offered unusually cheap tickets, prompting warnings about likely scams.
  • Legitimate tickets surfaced on resale platforms at higher prices as Fanki cited anomalous non‑human traffic in earlier outages and gave no new sale dates.
