Comic Con alert after traders tricked by bogus stall seller

Preston Comic Con in 2022

Stallholders for the event which takes place at 53 Degrees on Saturday are being urged to check they have booked through an official channel.

A message from the Preston Comic Con organisers say only stalls booked via the official venue email or Wonky Rocket Events page are valid.

A Facebook profile labelled as 'Jazmine Phelps' had been pretending to be acting for the event and taken bookings and money from traders.
