The Wyndham reservation computer has not done a good job of keeping track of where points were used from and throws them into non-existing use years at times.
Also it occasionally 'misfires' and generates points - for example this January or February I was attempting to cancel a couple of reservations near the closing time during the last evening that I could cancel before the 15 day rule was to go into effect (in other words, if I did not get them canceled that evening I was screwed and would loose the points by canceling the next morning). I attempted to cancel the two reservations several times before the computer did the cancel. The next morning I had over 1.3 million extra points in my account - each time I attempted a cancel the computer was returning points into my account but not actually making the cancellation. I called and got them removed later - but this is a example of the problems Wyndham has had with their computer system for a couple of months now.
I am not affected by these audits but certainly would have been if I had gone ahead and used those points.

I suspect that the audits are resulting in three groups of us 1) would be the folks that have a few extra points as a result of the "misfires" that you describe but never even knew what happened 2) others that saw what was happening and figured out how to make it happen over and over. And 3) guys like me with really big accounts that have an extraordinary number of extra points from multiple sources
I'm guessing that each group will be treated differently and I'm hoping that whatever happens will happen pretty soon
