Yeah, I don't think I'll be doing them anymore. I don't want my MTurk account hooked to a ton of different hits that are tied to stolen credit cards. Who knows what amazon might do if they see a huge link like that.

It explains why that one always puts his contact email in the actual hit vs. having you use the contact through MTurk. They're using the peoples actual emails to make the accounts and don't want you to contact that way.
yeah, I even got a rejection the other day. I didn't do anything different than I had been doing. So I have slowed down doing them , with this I may just quit them.

I'm sure they're not doing it *just* for that. But, they're using it to get ad revenue to a junk site to get money from it that way.
I don't think its ad revenue. They want their sites to have high hit counts so they can sucker people into using their hosting sites and get royally ripped off by them.

Was everyone actually clicking 15 articles? Because I found that too tiresome to be worth 50 cents. That's one reason I avoided them. I figured they could see exactly how many times I clicked so would reject if I didn't do 15.

Do they have the emails of everyone who submitted one of their HITs?

I pull the hit into its own tab then open all the hits in the same window as that tab so when I am done I click once to close the whole window.
