Just received this e-mail, does not appear to be targeted. Earn 750 bonus MileagePlus miles when you sign up for MyPoints at their link and keep your membership active for 30 days.
MyPoints is a program where you get points for reading marketing e-mails, taking surveys, and they are also a shopping portal like eBates. I used to use them but haven’t for a few years as the points have gotten even more devalued to the point that I don’t bother accumulating them.
But 750 United miles is worth taking 2 minutes to sign up with a temporary anti-spam e-mail address and forgetting about it. 750 miles is 3% of a 25k roundtrip award. 😉

Thanks for the tip, I’m always on the hunt for more United miles. I just registered.
I did this a couple years ago (same promotion) and had to contact MyPoints to force them to give me the 750 points. So don’t expect this to come without some hassle. Also, I found MyPoints to be utterly worthless.
Actually, they’ve made this offer before almost a year ago. I signed up then and never received any points from United. You also get a ton of e-mails from Mypoints, and it’s not a very good program in my opinion. Just thought I’d forewarn anyone thinking of doing this.
They don’t seem to accept spamgourmet email addresses. It gives me the following error when I enter mine: “Email address is not valid for Commercial Email “
Sorry about the spamgourmet not working. I just use an alternate @yahoo.com e-mail address for these types of things, but I have always like how elegantly spamgourmet works for those that don’t want another e-mail address.
My whole family had the “my point” several years ago, registering through Hilton Honors program in 2003-2004. MyPoint later cancelled our accounts without honoring those points we earned over time. Thus, we lost all points in the value of about US$400 after spending hours reading their e-mails and providing our personal information to the MyPoints partners and after making purchases through the provided links.
Our family was there losing the opportunity of redeeming the “hard-earned” points because MyPoint program unilaterally canceled our accounts. We’ve been there; do you want to be in our shoes?
I registered 6 months back. They have not posted the points for me either yet
