There is one report (I think just one but maybe more) that if your account is set to earn miles, and you deposit a 5k PC certificate, it will be transferred to US as 1250 miles and count as a hit.
At this point in the promo, personally I'd be pretty cautious relying on this as a 28th, 32d, 36th, or 40th hit, given some uncertainty and not much reporting on how long it takes or what the posted transaction date is, although maybe those familiar with this trick can post the details.
