I'll also try the incognito mode trick mentioned in other posts.

The thing is, I'm NOT trying to churn this card. I want it for the benefits, and I will put a decent amount of spend on it. But of course I want my points too.
Good luck!

I actually applied for the 70K Plat offer yesterday but I got the pop-up. I do not want it as much as you though, so I see your dilemma.

And for what it's worth. I have never seen incognito do anything other than reveal different (better) offers. The AMEX site obviously does the pop-up as it seems you are aware.

The targeted Delta Amex offers I got emailed/snailed last year were an exception because I did not get the pop-up with those, but that is a pre-approval/selection situation that allows you to get the bonus even if you had the same card before so definitely not the same thing.
