I'd be interested in experiences if you have. Thanks.
Before you dream up of any scheme to try to game AAdvantage, you should venture out to AA forum and see how aggressively AA is handling offenders who violate the program rules. Your scheme is clearly one of such.
If you want to keep your AA account and the miles in it, you may want to think twice on this scheme.
Merging account numbers because multiple accounts being created innocently, is one thing. That happens if the bank has created an account for you as an example. Deliberately creating multiple accounts to game AA? Good luck for not being audited by AA when EQM is involved.
