Some reports posted on internet sites weeks before Michael's death stated doubts in Michael ever performing the 50 date tour, one post even predicted the star would suddenly get ill or attempt suicide in order to pull out,one of the posts predicts "The whole thing is a hoax. There won’t be a single show. I feel sorry for anyone who has bought a ticket and/or bought flight tickets and hotel reservations, etc. There’s just no way this is going to happen - but people still believe in fairies.
Poor Michael will suddely come down with some ailment that will postpone the shows,then a possible fake suicide will utilmately lead to cancellation.and therein lies the fraud - that in fact, a lot of people cant get their money back or will not seek a refund.
