Here is a play with Amex which a lot of people had DM’d me for when I had posted about offering $300 to sign up using my referral link. 1- Amex referral offer gives me 10x on restaurant upto $25k spend if anyone else uses my referral link. 2- I spend $25K at website that codes as restaurant and earn 250K Amex MR. 3- website charges 3.2% for running credit card. Net profit- $2500(Assuming 1 cent per MR)- $800- $300= $1400.

Ah yes, our friend from KPMG back at it with their manufactured spend pyramid scheme - missed you

Missed you too ❤️

PS- Seasoned players would know what website/ app I’m talking about. It has been in existence for multiple years and lot of us use it for manufactured spending

LOL sorry had to ask

PS2- Please dont bother saying there is a risk for amex shutdown. There is obviously risk in manufactured spending.

PS3- I can usually get 1.2 cents per MR. Using 1 cent just as a conservative number

What about your diners club points?

Sorry what about them?

Nice play. Well done! I would love to know the app if you can share a hint

Sign up using my referral and I will share ;). Plus paying $300 over and above the referral bonus you will get from amex! 😂
