Is there anything (apart from my wallet) preventing me from benefiting from such a scheme?
What is allowed is to book 3 rooms at same hotel for one night and check in to all 3 rooms in person. You will get 3 stay/night credits as long as you pay for all 3 rooms. (China seems to be an outlier as they need 3 different passports for the 3 rooms. )
