Update: 6/16/15:
So I smed chase again and got the same response, denying to match to 140k. I then called Chase and got a very nice rep who tried to match it for me but was unsuccessful. It said in her system that they were only matching to 140k credit cards that were applied before April 30th. I applied May 14th. She then gave me 5k Ritz points as a courtesy and told me to try to call Ritz Rewards and ask them to replace my 2 free nights with the equivalent amount of points (probably not 140k). I did just that and the Ritz rep said she cannot do that. Blah blah.....
This really sucks <img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/tapatalk-emoji/emoji35.png" />

Update: 3/23/15: Many recent reports of successful match to 140k offer via SM
Updated link: https://creditcards.chase.com/credit-cards/ritz-carlton-card.aspx
Standard offer is for 2 free nights at Ritz Cat 1-4 which is not too bad either.

Update 2/9/15: DEAD     
current offer  140k bonus points +$300 airline credit annual fee 395 not waived
link https://www.theritzcarltonrewardscard.com/offer140k

To get $300 airline credit call 1-855-896-2222
don't buy gift cards from Chase affiliated airlines (United, SW..)
As Chase may be able to see what you purchased

JetBlue seat upgrades and delta seat upgrades worked for me.
Airline GC are very YMMV as there are reports of chase asking for receipts.
(Seat upgrades are officially covered in the T & C.)

I payed the AF bec it comes on sometime in the beginning and then when u lower it after a day or 2 u will get credit back for the AF

So what's the best way to avoid AF should I lower the credit limit right when I get it ?

Yes. Don't get rid of the credit call up and ask them to transfer credit to another chase card if u have. U need at least $1000
Does Chase get upset when customers do this?
Has anyone ever found that it flagged unwanted attention?

Does anyone know if this card will give you the same opportunity to not have the AF?

Always good to get matched ASAP, before they start telling people that there's a different AF on this offer and they can't match it.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

I just got a Priority Pass membership in the mail and it says my Lounge Club membership (which I got from the Ritz card) has been upgraded to Priority Pass. Anyone else get that?
