Canceled Bookings Under 'Overbooking' Ploy... Shocking Scheme Exposed

To wrap up, was an employee caught a few months ago canceling existing lodging reservations ahead of the BTS concert in Busan in order to resell them at much higher prices?

An employee at a lodging establishment in Busan, identified as A, called reservation holders directly in May, claiming that an overbooking had occurred and urging them to cancel their reservations.

Customers who had booked rooms for 90,000 won per night were ultimately forced to cancel their stays.

It was found that employee A resold the rooms secured this way for 500,000 to 600,000 won, which is more than six times the regular price.

Around 30 reservations were reportedly canceled at this property during that period alone.

Police have sent employee A to prosecutors on fraud charges, concluding that the employee induced reservation cancellations under the pretext of overbooking and resold the rooms at inflated prices.
