If I attempted to do this with my 6 accounts. I'd shoot myself.
Not to mention. That's a good way to get yourself a 1099K :-:

I remember reading something along the lines of AP more than 20k in a calendar year.

It's 20K AND 200 transactions annually.

Bingo.
Doing all that back and forth, you'd get close to 200 transactions real quick with one SSN. :eek:

You wouldn't need 16+ transactions per month with 6 cards.

I understand that A->B->A is very bad, but what about doing this in alternate (or switch every few) months? e.g.

Jan: A->B
Feb: A->B
Mar: B->A
Apr: B->A
May: A->B
Jun: A->B
...
...

I wouldn't, but only you can decide what you are comfortable with doing

I'm logged into Amazon Payments and I can't do or change anything. I'm not sure what or how they want me to verify my information. :confused:


Got this email today. Went on to my account and basically reenter all my info, All I did last night was add a few Credit cards that I needed to make spend on. I just signed up and sent a payment to my wife 2 days ago.

This is a total misconception, as far as I'm concerned. I don't know why it gets repeated so much.
A>B, B>A every single month for nearly two years has worked fine for me, and for many others. Sometimes even from the same IP address.

Same experience for me.

Being the cautious type, I would not have added "a few Credit cards" at once. For a data point, how many was a few? Maybe add one, meet spend, add the next… etc.

My understanding is that Amazon can track IP addresses. Does incognito mode really matter at all?
