Paying Taxes with AMEX

I recall somewhere that AMEX has an issue with people paying federal taxes to qualify for signup bonuses. I’m not even sure if that’s correct, but would they have an issue with me paying taxes to qualify for a myoffer. I currently have a myoffer for 7,000 bonus points if I spend 7,000 dollars on my everyday card. Then if you make 20 purchases on everyday you’d get a 20% bonus. So basically 15,400 points for a 7,000 charge isn’t bad…of course I’d be paying a service fee, but still not bad. Anyway, would AMEX frown upon this is the question?
