A terminally-ill grandmother will be able to fulfil her dying wish of seeing Adele in concert thanks to a businessman.
Cancer sufferer Lisa Middlecote paid £440 for her and her sister Justine Nield to see the star last night only to find out she had been conned by fake events website, goticketsUK.com.
The 49-year-old, who lives with her sister in Balmoral Road, Gillingham, wanted to "create a lasting memory gift" the two could share as she has only months to live.

After reading about their misfortune on KentOnline, Liam Walsh, of Maidstone-based MyHome Installations, came to the rescue.
He said: “We saw the report about the poor lady.
"We had bought some VIP tickets for the concert and thought it would be a nice thing to do seeing as she’s obviously been ripped off and she's also ill.”
The sisters will be seeing Adele on Saturday night at Wembley Stadium and their evening will be even better than they could had hoped.
The tickets donated by Mr Walsh come with lavish extras including luxury seating in the exclusive Bobby Moore club, pre-concert drinks and Champagne, an evening meal and invitations to a post-show after party.
An emotional Lisa said: "I've got a smile from ear-to-ear, unbelievable, unbelievable.
"It's absolutely colossal, I can't believe there are such kind people out there.
“I'm completely dumbfounded, that's absolutely amazing.”
Lisa found the fake tickets after another patient at a chemotherapy session searched for them on her phone after they talked about how seeing Adele in concert was on Lisa’s bucket list.
She was devastated after realising it was all a scam and felt she had let Justine, 45, down.
The grandmother-of-one, whose favourite Adele song is Hello, suffers from small cell lung cancer – a type of the disease which spreads quicker than others.
Several online forums include mentions of goticketsUK.com by a number of disappointed customers who also say they have lost money by buying tickets that have never arrived.
The website, which has since disappeared from the internet, is currently being investigated by the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau after receiving several reports from people who say they have been duped by the site.
