Given that Alaska has to know this, and has to know my status, why am I getting solicited to buy more miles with an "exclusive offer"? I get that those are spammed out all over the place, but it seems pretty stupid (well, to me at least) for them to be pumping an offer to an ineligible customer.
So…the advert appears to have reached its intended audience – if not you then all the people you share it with.
