    again, no code at the end. Am I doing something wrong? This is like the 3rd one today for me that has had no code at the end of the survey.

    Says you have to friend a certain person on FB, they will send you a link to an app that collects data on your FB usage and friends, etc.

    We shouldn't be downloading anything, right? I'm concerned about giving someone I don't know access to my friends list, etc.

    Heather, the hits you are doing are high risk. The TO ratings are there so you know what type of hits to avoid. There are *some* hits out there that don't have a code on purpose so that they don't have to pay you. Then there are ones like the Facebook hit that has been up for a while because no one will touch it. The two good TO ratings for it are obviously fakes.

    You will save yourself a lot of stress and hassle by staying away from hits that are in the red and orange zone. Try to stick to green. And always read TO before posting a hit here. Some people won't be as nice and might bark at you.

    With that TO rating and reviews and just the general fishiness of asking for the Facebook info -- I'd give this one a pass.

    They don't pay me enough to give them my personal information.

    From the looks of it, you are doing surveys with low TO, which may be why you aren't getting a code. I highly suggest using the TO link and checking out others reviews of the requester.

    If you're concerned, don't touch it. Plus I'm pretty sure that's a TOS violation. It's been up a couple of days and no one will touch it.

    Good morning! The last couple of days have been pretty good for me, both here, and in my other business, so I may just skip Turking all together today and just enjoy the day.

    Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

    The following is a summary of activity for your Mechanical Turk account for the week ending Apr 25, 2015.

    Your HIT activity for this week:
    - Number of HITs submitted: 333

    Approvals and payments that occurred this week:
    - Number of HITs approved: 243
    - Number of HITs rejected: 0
    - Bonus reward earned: $0.40
    - HIT reward earned: $47.78
    - Total Amount earned this week: $48.18

    Right in the zone for me. As a singer-songwriter friend of mine once wrote: "I'm not a rocket, I'm a hot-air balloon."

    Have fun and prosper! :)

    Most of the time everyone's very chilled out here. It gets silly sometimes, but it's mostly just a good group of people. :)
