Good catch, Hal. Here's the original post that lays out the complaint. Here's a typical commentconsumer

I was burned by MyPoints too. They have a huge screaming banner that says "Receive a FREE $15 FTD Gift Card with every redemption!" on top of their site, but they don't go into details.

I would recommend everyone who gets burned by this submit a complaint to ftc.gov and your local attorney general. It is ILLEGAL for them to use phrases like "gift card" and "gift certificate" and to deliver something that does not work like a real gift card. I would save the email correspondence as evidence. A smart lawyer would have a very lucrative class action lawsuit on his hands.

MyPoints and FTD are owned by the same company (United Online), and obviously they are trying to scam us into using their company.

I know what I'm doing to get back at them: I'm using Upromise.Com and 1800flowers.Com (both are FAR superior companies at what they do that don't cheat their customers!).

and

I agree! This was a very deceptive and worthless scam at best. I'm sure that it went something like this: "Hey let's sucker all the MyPoint idiots into buying flowers from us for Valentine's day" I feel very deceived and feel that MyPoints should do something to make this situation right.

No wonder FTD/United Online declined to comment to Internet Retailer about the success of the campaign. If they say it worked, they're looking at a class action lawsuit, if they say it didn't, they look like idiots.

Actually this will be the last one I post. We (MAS) are busy enabling our customers with tools to combat this and this terrible economy. I firmly believe we all need to get back to basics in your own backyards the rest will take care of itself... In due time.
