Jackson memorial tickets pulled from eBay, Craigslist

A Craigslist spokeswoman said offers for memorial tickets on Craiglist were being flagged for removal by users of the community-moderated site.
"Users very quickly flag off ads that are inappropriate, look fishy and are miscategorized, and that is what we are seeing happening with regards to Michael Jackson tickets," she told AFP.
Some 1.6 million people registered to enter the draw for the event, hoping to be among 8,750 lucky fans chosen at random by a computer to receive a pair of tickets for Tuesday's service.
Ticket winners who beat the 183-1 odds of being chosen will be given a wristband to wear when they are issued the tickets in order to make it harder for scalpers.
