The only good red flag is the one we use when diving. The Cardinal Rule is to have Y use AP to send a payment to X and then have X send the payment to Y by a means other than AP. If the Cardinal's (of AP and AMEX) can't see the complete transaction cycle they ain't got a reason to stick their beak in your business.

But, Not sure if they track peoples address as Amz could easily see 2 people sending money back and forth living in the same place??--any thoughts on this?
