Genius!
No, not really. Booking a ticket SFO - LAX - LAS and LAX - SFO under the same FF# is a dead give away of what is likely happening. AA has years of experience watching flight patterns and probably catches way more of these than they take action on. Yes, there can be legitimate bookings, but those people will push the issue more than someone trying to cheat the airline.
