    I had no idea this forum had moderators. I thought it was Andy's site. I thought that's what made this site better than the others.

    Wow that blog post was pretty interesting, never seen that before. I didn't realise the scammers were so organised. Shocking!

    I left TO today. I did this hit earlier today and it was rejected with no reason at all. I know I did everything I needed to do on it.

    I didn't know about that particular case, but it makes a lot of sense to me. I mean, if you know which requesters won't reject and you can literally just fly through there submitting garbage or at least how to get around the system you can probably make money even faster. Of course, this isn't very helpful in the long run for most of us because it would eliminate our long-term ability to make money on MTurk.

    As long as there is a desire for money in this world, there will always be people willing to cut corners to get it. By teaming up, they do it even faster. It has kept the mafia in business for generations.

    Hi guys, this forum is for posting good hits. If you have an opinion about what went down earlier, then share it with someone who wants to hear it via PM - not in this area please.

    'Christopher Lee' has a few surveys up, they're just 5 cent jobs but literally took me 5-10 seconds each.

    Yes it is. A requester who rejected my work for no reason said that he was watching out for scammers. I didn't understand at the time. I told him that I wouldn't go through the trouble of scamming him for .50 cent or any amount for that matter. I see how these scammers are affecting us directly.

    I am a good girl to good people. Like Andy said, if you want to discuss this...PM. Feel free to PM "ME" since I was one of the people involved. And if you click on my profile you can see that I'm VERY much Female Ms. Bertha. smh

    I heard you had to do 500 of them with no errors, but I don't know how correct that info is. I'm at 81 right now.
