JLS have leapt to the rescue after two fans were duped by a fake ticket website.

The Mirror reports that the band have given two fans - aged 12 and 7 - free concert tickets and also backstage invitations after they fell foul of the online scam.

The pair are said to have lost out on £125, with the ticket website - www.jls-tickets.com - now being investigated by police.

The band will meet the kids next month, with one of their mothers saying: "It's such a kind thing to do."

A spokesman for JLS added: "The boys just wanted to help."

As previously reported, JLS recently revealed the level of abuse they receive from internet trolls, calling the amount of time people put into online negativity as "pathetic".
