Let me start off by agreeing with most of your latest post, and I am far from perfect myself (However, I disagree strongly with the original narc idea).

You really set yourself up for that one

But if you read United's Rule 8, I did not violate the rules.

I'm not too familiar with UA, so checked the rules on the Web site and expected to find support for your innocence. Unfortunately, I read Rule 8 and don't see it exactly the same way:

Prohibition of sale or barter

8. The sale or barter of any such mileage, certificates, awards or benefits other than by United is expressly prohibited. Any mileage, certificates, awards or benefits transferred, assigned or sold in violation of the Program Rules, in addition to exposing the member to the penalties otherwise associated with violations, may be confiscated or cancelled. The use of award tickets that have been acquired by purchase, barter, or other conduct in violation of Program Rules may result in the confiscation of the tickets, denial of boarding with respect to the ticket holder, and, at United's discretion, completion of the travel only upon payment of an applicable fare.

Gee, now I'm acting like the mileage police
