Easy as fuck for Ticketmaster gigs... I'm lazy as balls and can't be bothered to format it so here you go:
At any Ticketmaster ticketed event or concert, there are usually 2 types of tickets sold - Physical (with hologram) and Digital (Print out)
Here are some pics in case you're confused.

and the Digital

Whenever you go to an event, your ticket is scanned. Essentially, the barcode (which is just a number) is marked in a database as USED, so obviously a barcode can't be scanned twice - HOWEVER if a PHYSICAL ticket is scanned and reads as USED, 99/100 times the person will just rip the ticket and let you in, hell I've even got in with a print-out ticket to multiple concerts that didn't scan and they just ripped it and let me in.
So, our trick here is to:
find people's tickets online a few weeks before the event - e.g. If you want to see Calvin Harris, you would just search "Calvin Harris" on instagram, and find pictures that stupid little girls have uploaded
Steal their barcode number (example, here) Generate a Barcode image file at for example, http://www.barcodesinc.com/generator/index.php [url=http://i.imgur.com/Zin8q3A.png][/url] Here is where the fiddly part begins. We must now paste the person's barcode image (which we generated above), OVER the barcode of a Digital ticket. Where do we get a PDF of the digital ticket? Well, we have to buy one or find one online, for example I bought a ticketmaster ticket to a local rugby game and then opened it in photoshop. Once you have your ticket, you have to erase all the original details, which leaves you with this: [Image: 1NiSLnR.jpg]
Once you have erased all the details, you can then begin filling in the new details - which you are taking from the ticket you found online. Obviously these physical tickets do not have names on them, but we can make one up - as you can see below the tickets have identical details on them: [Image: 8PfwZ3f.png] [Image: 99e0a7f603.png]
The most important thing to get right here is the event code, and ticket/seat type.
Now, once you have pasted your barcode over the blank space and filled in the details, you are ready to go!
I'd recommend making 1-2 per person so in the worst case scenario you have an extra shot of getting in, and in the best case you have a ticket to sell!!
SHOW UP TO THE EVENT EARLY, AS YOU MUST GET IN BEFORE THE PERSON YOU TOOK THE TICKET FROM! I usually go with a few friends early to drink/smoke etc. for an hour or so before doors open.
Thanks for reading

You can't really counterfeit a ticket because it's a physical space... and people aren't going to buy tickets and discount them; it's always the other way where they buy tickets and jack up the price. You're tough out of luck.

They're all carded or involve some level of fraud. This goes for car rentals/hotels/plane tickets, etc.

How about just forking out the money to support your favorite artists?
