Why would you worry about paying the bill from BB, which can be funded by a bank account in case you do not know. How would Citi or Chase know what you use to fund your BB account?
Didn't some people get their Chase AARP shut down for "abusing" (as defined by Chase) the 5x bonus? I didn't get a chance to participate in that deal and don't know all the details, but it seems that if the card issuer is paying out too much in points, they will investigate.
