Analysis
This is a great deal given the overall value of SPG Starpoints. I just stayed at a Four Points by Sheraton in Edmonton this past weekend for 3,000 Starpoints, so that shows you what these can potentially be worth. At minimum I would say this bonus is worth about $50, but in certain cases it can be worth much more than that.
Additionally, this extra card will also have a unique number which means it will also be eligible to receive Amex Offers both via the American Express website and also via Twitter if you register it. This can potentially save you even more money if you are able to utilize a good deal. Generally Amex Offers are better in the 4th quarter, so this could give you more ammunition for then.
Conclusion
I see this as a no-brainer as long as you are able to find someone to add to your account. Personally, I have already completed the offer and look forward to my points posting. I love offers like this that both have value and take little time. Enjoy!
