I mentioned to a few people over the last few weeks that Amex is newly monitoring this activity, is clamping down on GC purchases, and is revamping their policies (inside info from reliable source). I knew BC was part of it, but had no idea this was their plan.
I DO believe that Amex reads these blogs and I suggest this thread be deleted and reopened with a disclaimer to be careful what is written, assuming Amex will be reading it.
