From SkyMiles Membership Rules & Conditions:
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">
Audit and Disqualification- Delta reserves the right to audit any and all members’ accounts at any time and without notice to the member to ensure compliance with the rules set forth in this program guide and Delta’s conditions of carriage, which apply to all passengers and which are hereby incorporated herein by reference. Delta’s conditions of carriage include a prohibition against actions involving:
o Fictitious multiple bookings
o Misuse of tickets
o Altered tickets
o Forged/counterfeit/stolen tickets
o Back-to-back tickets
o Throwaway and hidden-city/point-beyond tickets
o Verbal or physical abuse
In the event the audit reveals discrepancies or violations, the processing of Award Certificates/Tickets and statements may be delayed until the discrepancies or violations are resolved. Violators are subject to having their SkyMiles accounts inhibited. While the account is inhibited, accounts can continue to accrue miles; however, mileage cannot be redeemed. Based on the audit, penalties may be imposed through the deduction of miles.
- Delta also reserves the right to disqualify any person from further participation in the SkyMiles program or special promotions if, in Delta’s sole judgment, that person (i.e. a travel agent, ticket broker or any individual who sells, purchases, assigns or barters mileage from another individual’s SkyMiles account) has violated Delta’s conditions of carriage or any of the rules described herein.
- Disqualification will result in termination of an individual’s membership, loss of accumulated mileage credit and the cancellation of any unused Awards.
