BEIJING, July 21 (Xinhua) -- The city's police department has warned that anyone found scalping Olympics tickets faces penalties, which in some cases could be 10 to 15 days in detention, the Beijing Youth Daily reported on Monday.

The report, quoting an unidentified source with the Beijing Public Security Bureau, said police had uncovered several online cases in which people were touting tickets for the opening ceremony or other events.

The police said they would step up their crackdown on such activities.

As the Olympics near, some Chinese have become frantic about tickets, particularly for the opening ceremony on Aug. 8. The police warned the public not to buy tickets from scalpers, because they might get fakes or pay exaggerated prices.
