Now I hear about the gift card or vanilla cards and buy money orders to pay back card, but seems as if buying those cards are getting stricter by preventing the use of CC. Now I have my own online business and was thinking of buying something off of the site using the card to rack up the 5k spending and then refunding after points are added. Would Chase remove the points for the refund?

On my Citi card I have done couple refunds on amazon and the points stayed. So I'm trying to figure out ideas, anyone have any other ideas?
Ouch, thats a conundrum. Should have thought it out before jumping in the deep end without knowing how to at least doggie paddle
