More than 150 complaints have been received by police investigating an alleged ticket fraud for the Bestival music event.
People were left without tickets after paying to go to the festival on the Isle of Wight earlier this month.
More than 900 people have joined the "Stresstival" Facebook page, with many claiming to be out of pocket.
Ben Hyland-Ward, 18, from Brighton, was arrested on suspicion of fraud by false representation and released on bail.
Sussex Police revealed the latest number of complaints as they renewed an appeal to anyone else who may have been a victim to come forward.
Bestival was held between 10 and 13 September and featured Duran Duran, The Chemical Brothers and Missy Elliot as its headliners.
