points.com error - transfer from Amtrak Guest Rewards to Asia Miles

Points.com recently had an error in their exchange rate between AGR and Asia Miles. When I tried to exchange my existing 10K AGR on points.com, the exchange ration showed up as 63750 Asia Miles for 10k AGR.
So, I immediately bought another 10k AGR with the current 30% bonus for $275. Upped my total AGR to 23000 and exchanged for 148K Asia Miles.

Essentially, for $275, I got back ~82k asia miles.

I thought this was a normal ratio of exchange between AGR and Asia Miles. However, points.com corrected the error this morning. Someone made a mistake of putting an extra zero at the end of the number of asia miles.
