MICHAEL JACKSON - JACKSON TICKETS BANNED BY EBAY

JACKSON TICKETS BANNED BY EBAY

Bosses of auction website eBay have launched a crackdown after ruthless touts tried to sell tickets for MICHAEL JACKSON's memorial service.
Passes for the event at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Tuesday (07Jul09) were allocated in an online lottery, with 17,500 lucky fans winning entry.
Within minutes of the draw, heartless touts were attempting to cash in by offering to sell tickets for up to $7,500 (£5,000) on the website.
But eBay bosses were quick to step in and ban users trying to trade Jackson memorial passes on the site.
A spokesman says, "Any tickets for the memorial service will be taken down."
