According to the article, the woman in question recently went with her child to a supermarket in Kaiyuan Plaza in the city and purchased items such as toothpaste. Afterward, she participated in a lottery event that could be entered by spending 128 yuan (approximately 3000 yen) or more per purchase at a store within the plaza, and won one 'Special Prize' World Cup match ticket.

The ticket is for a knockout stage (round of 32) match to be held on July 3, and the winner can receive the ticket by verifying online. However, the woman stated, 'I cannot go to watch the match in person, so I want to give it to a fan who truly wants to go.'

When the woman solicited buyers on social media, a netizen appeared offering '500,000 yuan (approximately 11.7 million yen) to buy it,' but another user posted a comment calling for calm, saying, 'While World Cup tickets are indeed expensive, a ticket for a non-final match doesn't have that much value.'

Furthermore, a supermarket staff member said, ''There is no doubt that the brand (which sponsored the lottery event) is providing genuine World Cup match tickets,' but added, 'We also do not know whether the tickets are registered under real names or if they can be resold.' 'People considering purchasing (from the woman) should be careful not to fall victim to scams or other issues.' (Translated and Edited by Kitada)
