Unhappy EK Staff Ticket

HI
about a year ago if found an add in some page saying that he have EK staff ticket for sale
I contact and meet him , and after i check the ticket he gave me on the Emirates application and i see that its a confirmed ticket i pay him the agreed amount
after one week i receive and email saying that my ticket is canceled coz i don't make payment , i tried to call that man with no answer
After that i know that i got scammed
after making some connection with emirates they told that how ever Pay Money he have the full authority to cancel and refund Despite the passenger name on the ticket
Now i found someone with the same idea he told that he is working for emirates and he have CONFIRMED Business ticket for Sale
I Was just wondering how can make sure that this is Confirmed ticket and not fake one
and how i can make sure not get scammed again ? I ask him if i can pay for the ticket price from my credit and i will give him cash for extra amount he want he reply that the payment should be cash from his side to emirates because its discounted ticket
thanks for help all

You are violating the contract of carriage and EK will cancel if they find out.

If you're seriously doing it again maybe you haventh learnt your lesson. Just buy a normal ticket.

Surely this is a wind up ? If not, if I were you - I would pay cash again, after all what do you have to lose

It's a scam, you will end up without a flight or money. Just don't do it.

To answer your question..YES..it is (virtually) certain that the person (claiming to have this ticket to sell) is NOT allowed to sell it.

In any case, as DYKWIA suggests..its likely a scam to start with. Any employee selling staff travel tickets would probably be sacked.... hell of a risk to take... Its more likely there is NO ticket to start with, and probably not an EK employee either...

You've been burned once, do you really want to risk that AGAIN???

Thanks for everybody advice
I believe in both time i was greed and i want to save some good sum of money with this tickets
and on the first time i was naive and i just pay without asking and i end up without money or tickets
So now in the second time i was greed also and try to recoup But with caution this time to NOT end up as the first time
this is why i write this post to get some advice
again many thanks for your clarification and advice
