Something similar was posted on the Hyatt forum not that long ago and someone said they discontinued the match program as a result of abuse and now they require a nearly impossible challenge to keep Diamond. Not sure how true this is though.
I know when I status matched to Hyatt a year ago, they requested my stay history. I'm surprised SPG doesn't require the same.
