03/24 - Test Drive Thursday!

[tricker]

In other thread-derailing news, I'm about 80% sure I have a kidney stone.

Feel free to send me sympathy cards!

(this will be my third time, and there is no pain like this ever, which is why I'm pretty sure it is what it is) Commencing massive water intake now.

Account must've been hacked...

People can use whatever name they like for their requester account. Looks like someone is using the Sergey name to make people think that they're safe to do. I like how they also included OCMP as a keyword. >.>

uh someone using the sergey name?

Yeah, A310N8EXJNXVCA is an imposter. In addition to being a fake Sergey Schmidt, they have 'ocmp' in their keywords falsely. It's a SEO HIT for stardewmods.com, hosted on mturkcontent generic template.

LOL! That website doesn't even come up. Looks like they didn't pay their hosting bill.

they're apparently familiar enough with mTurk, maybe they're waiting on some Amazon Payments money to finally transfer.

Or not. Hubby fixed what he broke. For once. See ya in the morning!

That's interesting. Why would they even attempt that?

 

[bxpretzel]

I just got captcha banned trying to accept the fake Sergey HIT.

 

[Bode "Emo Barry" Miller]

because people will see the name sergey schmidt and do the hit because of that

Really strange hit

So if I did this hit.... will I probably just get a rejection? Doesn't feel right, but I did the hit anyway. Also there weren't exactly "sentences," so much as bullet points in the description. I just copied/pasted the 8th line.

 

[catnapped]

The person who posted it might be here watching right now...

Hi Fake Sergey

 

[clickhappier]

Hmm, if you google the imposter's ID A310N8EXJNXVCA, guess what comes up? This thread, and two TurkCheck ID lists... they're a turker.

I figured they were. I don't think a random person would have thought to copy a used name or put OCMP in the keywords.

I went to the museum today. When I was watching priceless works of art and centuries-old furniture that had been used by royalty and survived through countless conflicts, I thought to myself, " What a massive waste of time, I wish I could be doing some Breligs right now".

Nobody knows what any no-TO requester will do, especially one being so duplicitous.
