MS with Indiegogo
Can you setup an indiegogo for yourself, and just fund it with your credit card?

Just got the UA MPE and nned to spend the 3,000. This is the only one I want to MS, and not looking got do it again.

Also should specify, I am only looking to do this to get my sign up offer from UA. Not looking to make money. Through generosity.com they charge a 3% CC fee. So it would be $90 to get my 50,000 miles.

Would I run into any legal problems or anything? Just paranoid

I don't know that you'd run into legal problems, but it's almost certainly a misuse of their site, and they may end up refunding the charge to you, which would potentially cause problems for your bonus. Why not just go with Venmo at 3%?
