There is risk of a ticket getting cancelled. There is a risk of the account getting shut down after being paid and not giving back the money
1. Once the points are transferred out of chase into the airline account, there is no increased risk on bookings using those miles.

2. Chase would only shutdown account if there is some sort of trigger. Going with the theory that selling points is a trigger, once the points are out the broker is covered.

You getting quoted bad rates doesn't mean that it isn't possible to get better.
