We put out a consumer alert this week because there are already ticket sellers offering presidential inauguration tickets, which don't exist yet. And the price is high - $1000 and up.

Here's the real scoop:

1. Tickets are free
2. You can only get them from your U.S. senator or U.S. representative. They won't be available until about a week before the Jan. 20 inauguration.

File a consumer complaint with our office if you suspect a scam.
