Fake tickets?

Over the weekend, the Depeche Mode dot com news service reported that the "Starting the Angel" show at the Bowery this Friday is list only - no physical tickets are available, just the list with contest winners' names. The point of this announcement was to prevent fraudulent sales on eBay. My question, though, is what about the physical tickets given away by J&R Music World last week? Apparently they had 100 to give out, in return for the purchase of Playing the Angel, which were all gone by 11:15am. I wonder if that was some sort of scam.
