    I'm in touch with the Apple Order confirmation requester. One TO report says scam, but a commenter pointed out a linkedin profile that just about any of us would submit as this Requester's if it were asked to find it in a HIT. I've asked for more information about the project and have mentioned the forum. I'll update you with any more information I am able to provide.

    How many of the AWS hits did you manage to get it in before they ran out? I managed 410, but I was busy with some school stuff through it periodically as well. :D However they really helped my numbers, No fear eh? :D

    I e-mailed him yesterday to because I initially sent a receipt for a repair that was free so I sent him another e-mail with a receipt for a purchase. Never heard back.

    I thought I downloaded the script that allows me to Link in that fancy way but maybe I dont know how to use it.
    In any case, what do you guys think of this?

    I've tried a few, and they seem easy enough (though I dont think im finding Elephants...just suspicious areas) I worry about the TO

    I sent him a screen shot and he told me that it was worthless to them unless it was the HTML version, which makes sense considering his current project on linkedin. Sending the HTML source would make editing out all personal info pretty easy as well, rendering the personal information null. He is definitely interested in getting the right data, so unless he runs from email about TO, forums and such, I think this may turn out to be a decent HIT/requester. Hopefully he'll get back to us tomorrow.

    I did a few. We'll see. This reminds me of doing the HITs to search satellite photos for Steve Fossett. Anyone else remember those? (Edit: Wow, I guess that was back in 2007. I feel old.)

    I know right. I don't know if I'd be able to recognize an elephant if I saw one, much less a person. I think I might've seen a group of elephants in one photo but its so hard to tell.

    Anyone work these before? I just did about 6, they are very easy and quick to do, but I am afraid to do more.

    I haven't never did any HITs for this requester. I figure a good way to get my numbers up.
