Pending points for AP indicate 1x for this month's session, generated yesterday. Have received 3x for several months prior, always showed pending as 3x. Woh woh.

Yes, if a Citi have her manufacture a virtual card number. Else, your card is stolen and needs to be reissued with a new number.

Bit off topic: when my Citi AA card was used in Mexico fraudulently, Citi did not even think it necessary to issue a new number! :confused:

Each account has a unique bank account (which stems from back in the mint days when I needed multiple chains of banks to unload coins). I believe the 1099 also needs a minimum of 200 transactions, but I'm not an expert on this. I've been doing AZ payments since the days of the mint and have had no trouble with a 1099.

Thank you for sharing! I have one AP account and significant others has another. Has been doing A->B. Inspired reading your note, I'd like to signup another AP for each. Upon signing up, it asks "Do you have an Amazon.com password?" with 2 choices:
1) I am a new customer
or
2) I am a returning customer,
and my password is:

Would you mind sharing that which works - choose 1) or 2)?

Thank you!

Fire up your time machine, go back a few years to before AP required your Social Security number and you're good to go. While you're there, pick up a couple of 75K and 100K bonuses for me.
You can no longer open multiple AP accounts. Sorry. But if you know some dead people, they may be able to open accounts ;)

But for our purposes the card needs a new number!:p

Kenny, funny you should say that. Maybe you and I can pull a list from the south Texas voter registration rolls.:D

My line of work has me sifting through dead people’s SSNs all day. Definitely has crossed my mind to open thousands upon thousands of AP accounts and having an AP party sending my CL from dead person to dead person....;)

I do not believe this to be true. Astrophsx and others report having multiple AP accounts open today, all with same SSN. Have you had multiple AP accounts and have they gotten closed? I'd be curious to hear your experience here.

Uh, oh I sense a zombie apocalypse coming!:p Blame Jeff Bezos for shutting down the accounts of the living. I vote we snatch him, throw some salt and pepper on him, and drop him in Raccoon City.:D

I also still have multiple accounts. But the game is risky, very risky. Blow darts fly all the time in the jungle as the Bezos tribe of headhunters beat the bush for prey.:cool:

It's amazing how many times the headhunters captured me (I really thought I was toast a few times) but after offering sacrificial data, they let me be :cool:

I've got some family members that are not into this game at all. Could I use their SSN/info to set up multiple AP accounts?

Basically, I'd use their name/SSN/DOB, but I'd use a separate email address and a separate bank account to link to the AP account.

A) Sister A's name/SSN/DOB + [email protected] + Bank A (mine) account
B) Sister B's name/SSN/DOB + [email protected] + Bank B (mine) account
C) Mom's name/SSN/DOB + [email protected] + Bank C (mine) account
D) Dad's name/SSN/DOB + [email protected] + Bank D (mine) account

In the end, I'd run it like this:
Me->(A)->(B)->(C)->(D)->Me
All payments sent would be from a different credit card.

Sound reasonable? Or am I asking for a visit from Bezos?

Sadly enough, I had to add a Google Calendar event to remind me to get my $1000 in every month. I think I've missed out on at least 3-4000 points this year. :(

You may be OK, personally I don't complete the circle.
