I saw this crazy offer on my blue cash preferred card. Seems like the craziest credit card offer of all time.

I'm not sure I've ever seen anything on such a scale before. I think the Amazon telescope debacle is on par perhaps. I wonder what the bottom line was on that fark up and on this one (assuming Amex let's it stand). I just can't believe there has been complete radio silence about this. Also, I can't believe they'd let this go for 3x redemptions. Maybe 1x as a consolation. This is literally handing out free $$$$ I've got my fingers crossed for all of you who got in.

I agree... seems very unusual for them to have something of this magnitude and it not be tied in with other merchants or heavily advertised as a card member perk.

AMEX did a somewhat lucrative Gift Chain promotion before Christmas in 2011 that was sponsored by other merchants. I think it wore out their customer service reps from people who couldn't figure out how it worked, and they haven't done anything similar since, except for a few much smaller Shop Small promotions.

People do not forget the taxes.. Even if Amex honors, IRS will come after you for their piece.

Totally agree. I actually got in on that earlier Amazon deal because I have weird sleeping habits (like now), but that was a comparatively limited event, since it was only up for an hour or two in the middle of the night. This involves waaay more money.

The thing is, AMEX just doesn't make these kinds of mistakes. I'll bet there have been some VERY interesting conversations taking place over at AMEX Corporate because of this.
