MyPoints Second Hits?
 

Reading other recent posts about revisiting SalonSaavy and MasterCard Exclusives prompts this question: has anyone noticed any current MyPoints offers that can be earned more than once, with a short duration between each entry?

No, please explain.

Try signing up for MotleyFool.com off the "Try It Out" page.
(You'll have to use a different email address -- but that doesn't seem to stop MyPts from posting the award to your correct MyPts account.)
Used to be 110pts, but now it's down to 75.
Still, it's better than nothing.
(Which, by the way, is what I get when I try to double-dip on the MasterCard Online link...congrats to those folks who have managed to score more than once off that one...)

Just a warning..."(You'll have to use a different email address -- but that doesn't seem to stop MyPts from posting the award to your correct MyPts account.)"

Most of the Mypoints bulletin boards have closed down over the past six months, but I read several posts last Fall from people who suddenly found Mypoints closed their account claiming the user violated terms of agreement by signing up with programs and providing false information. Some people lost many 1000s of points when their accounts were closed. Signing up for the same program using different e-mail addresses and collecting points twice is the kind of flag that might get noticed.
Please avoid trying to beat the system to gain points. You might just lose them all.

Thanks, satori, I'll take that as a word to the wise.

I should have made that point myself -- there are definitely risks involved, whenever you try to skirt the edges of what's feasible with what's allowed...

I too have had awards redeemed frozen for 6 months because I had two emails accounts. We resolved it in the end, but now I have only one and am quite happy with that. A few less points but I'm just grateful for anything I get for free!
