AA can do whatever it wants in response to people's actions in regards to an unpublished benefit. It has no contractual obligations. But "fraud" is a legal term. If I haven't seen a requirement that I list as my address my most frequent residence or my domicile, then I can't make a material misrepresentation to AA in using some other address, say, my office address, or my family's address, or any other address. If there is no material misrepresentation, there is no fraud. It's one thing to say that "if you do x, AA will do Y." It's another thing to say that "if you do X, you've committed a fraud."
