This DOES NOT work.
The T&C's of the BOA debit card say:
"Quasi-cash transactions, which are transactions convertible to cash and
include the purchase of money orders, travelers checks, foreign currency,
cashier’s checks, gaming chips, and other similar instruments and things
of value" do not earn miles.
