La Quinta Gold Upgrade and Cert's arrived in mail, no idea why.

Yesterday I received in the mail a letter from La Quinta telling me I was now Gold. Along with the letter were a few upgrade certificates and a physical gold card.

I have stayed at La Quinta once in my life, for about 5 days last May for which I earned 6,360 points. I don't have a CC with them nor have I ever applied for the LQ credit card.

Anyone have any idea why they would have upgrade my status?

They sometimes have promos where nights count double. You need 10 nights for Gold status (their lowest level),, so if your 5 nights happened to be during a double nights promo (that you didn't know about, which is easy to do given their confused website), it might have counted as 10?
