More likely a rogue agent.
It's in the T&C's
m) Guest of Honor: If a Globalist transfers a Free Night Award to another party in accordance with these Terms, the recipient will be treated as a “Guest of Honor” at the applicable hotel or resort.
Only free night awards can be used for GoH. P&C is not a Free Night Award. You can transfer P&C to another person, it just won't have GoH benefits:
13. Transferring an Award. Members may request that certain awards be issued to another Member. Free Night Awards, certain Room Upgrade Awards, and Points + Cash Awards are currently eligible for transfer, as permitted under this provision.
