I also just tried this and got the deafult offer of no fee for the first year and the 10,000 mile bonus. Although, I am neither self employed nor a sole proprietor and am now wondering if it will work with my made up information. A co-worker (jokingly) accused me of credit fraud. Should I call and cancel before I get in a big mess?</font>

Applying for a credit card (be it a business card or a personal card) with made-up information is a fraudulent application! - this is true even if you then use the card and pay your bills. This is probably illegal (not a lawyer - couldn't quote a specific statute) but certainly immoral.

OK, off my high horse.
