Credit Cards at Customs in JFK

Does anyone know if customs in JFK for arriving AA flights accepts credit cards? I'm coming back from Japan, and don't have a blank check or enough USD with me to cover the duty. Plus, I'd like the points

Also, since I'll be declaring the stuff I purchased overseas, and going through the dreaded "Red" line, does that make me more likely to get searched? I'm not trying to hide anything, but when I got randomly stopped and searched several years ago in SJU it took the guy almost an hour to go through two small suitcases...

Thanks,

Alex
