Warning:Hannah Montana tickets could be fake
GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. -- Parents who've paid hundreds, if not thousands of dollars, for Hannah Montana tickets and their children could show up Wednesday night and be crushed. The Gwinnett Arena is warning parents to watch out for counterfeit tickets.
Hannah Montana
Hannah Montana beats the Rolling Stones when it comes to quick ticket sales. And ordinary buyers had an even tougher time getting tickets to the Gwinnett show we're told, because ticket resellers used some kind of virus to circumvent firewalls at an official ticket website and bought large blocks of seats.

Hannah Montana is a concert goliath - her shows here and everywhere else sold out in minutes. Now scalpers and resellers are having a field day selling $66 tickets for anywhere from $500 to $2,500.
Miley Cyrus, or Hannah Montana, has declined interviews about her concert tour and the skyrocketing price of scalped tickets. With so much money to be made, people have been reselling tickets online for an enormous profit. The problem is, there's no telling how many of those tickets are counterfeit - produced by computer software.
"We are definitely concerned about that when the tickets went on sale we tried to put the warning out there the only tickets we can stand by through Ticketmaster is their phone lines or our box office," said Chris Hendley with the Arena at Gwinnett Center.
Arena officials told Channel 2 concerned parents have called asking if they can bring in tickets bought elsewhere to confirm they're legitimate. But officials said they cannot do that.
One parent, lucky enough to get a pair of tickets at face value said she's appalled by the counterfeiting and the outrageous re-sale prices.
"In a lot of state it's illegal to re-sell them at this point because of the scalpers who have come out and charged unreasonable amounts," said parent Andrea Kiep.
Getting "The Best of Both Worlds" won't be easy for those hoping to snatch up a Hannah ticket and making sure it's the real deal.
Gwinnett officials said parents who bought tickets from non-official sources won't be able to confirm they are legitimate until they are scanned at the door. Officials said they're also concerned about duplicate tickets. The bottom line is to be very careful who you buy from.

Billy Ray Cyrus daughter Miley is Hannah Montana.
She filled the void that Britney Spears left when she started her crazy ways.
She is such a cute little thing today.
Ten years from now, like Brittney, she will probably be in and out of rehab, and getting knocked up by some punk.
She was in Tampa last week or two weeks ago...
Oh bigtire, she just turned 15 in November....still want her naked?..
Destiny Hope "Miley" Cyrus[1] (born November 23, 1992)[2] is an American actress, singer and songwriter. She is best known for starring as Miley Stewart/Hannah Montana on the Disney Channel Original Series, Hannah Montana.
