THese people have been proven to be stealing peoples information to make mturk accounts to post these hits. Why wouldn't they also try to scam you by having you do free work?
Where was this proven? I know it was a theory, but I didn't think it was ever backed up.

Well, since I've emailed the people through mturk on several accounts and have gotten a hold of the real people that the account name is under and they've said that they have no clue what mturk even is...

(Which is why on a lot of the hits they put an email in the hit for you to contact. They know you can't reach them via the mturk messaging system)

projected earnings for the day - a big splash of slimy, stinking mud across my face while putting the old pool in the trash can.
