Related to this thread, this week someone I do not know is using my PC account on a stay in Mexico. This is the 4th time this has happened at the same hotel this year. I canceled a legitimate PC reservation this week in Indiana so my PC account would not show a overlapping stay (this is what shows if I am staying in two PC properties at the same time). So far they have not used my cc or my points. I monitor my account pretty closely, since I am above 1 million points. Last year, the first time it happened I called PC and complained and they let me keep the points. I figure as long as I am earning points from these stays (>40,000 YTD), why call again? Should I put a stop to this? I was going to use this week's HIX stay for another $50 GC so I will have to wait for another reservation for this, but that is the only problem I see.
