Earn 5X Miles on DL Purchases 3/15-4/30/2012

No idea if this is targeted or not but received the following email...
------------------

Hello Mr. Sez_Who,

With your Delta SkyMiles® Credit Card from American Express, you can get closer to the kind of trips that dreams are made of. Between March 15 and April 30, 2012, you can earn up to five times the miles on eligible Delta purchases. Enroll today and see how quickly you can earn your next Award Ticket on Delta or any of Delta's SkyTeam partners.

Here's how it works:
Step 1: Register in the promotion by clicking here
Step 2: Find desired Delta flights and include your SkyMiles number in the
itinerary
Step 3: Complete your purchase using your Delta SkyMiles Credit Card and earn
five times the miles for the purchase amount

Enroll in this exclusive promotion and you can start earning five times the miles today. Don't forget to enter your SkyMiles account number on your travel itinerary.



Unfortunate timing for me because I just booked intl BE but hope it will help someone else.

Tried a couple other backdoor things but nothing worked.

Good question. Definitely a DL link.

A little weird to me since I have never received any targeted DL promotion before. Only thing I can figure it they noticed I booked intl BE last week and figured since I already blew a bundle, now is the time to tell me what a huge mistake I made.

The five times the miles offer only includes three promotional miles in addition to double miles on eligible Delta purchases
Huh?

Maybe "triple" rather than "three"?

I think what they mean is you usually get 2x the number of dollars, so they're giving 3x more.... for a total of 5x.

Hopefully it'll work better than the 150 miles we were supposed to get from Bose

....

(I gave up on that one)

I pulled it up on my mobile and clicked the button. Took me to a Delta page and the address shows it as a delta.com domain.

As a targeted promo, there's no form to fill out. Clicking the link registers you automatically via the link coding.

If Delta link..then may be a no go for me as it does not show up in "available promotions" on delta.com for me.
