I'm pretty sure Gale's been banned. I tried to send an email through mturk earlier and it wouldn't let me.
I am pretty sure they can not get emails through Mturk, which is why they list an email in the hits they post..

I remember someone said they tried contacting the requester from a previous name they were using, and they got a response from someone claiming to not know anything about having an Mturk account

This sucks...really hope you can get it worked out. I can really never figure Amazon's thinking out.
Perfect example: At one of the other forums, a person had their account suspended then 2 weeks later they get an email saying "Congratulations on getting your Masters". They have had a Masters qual ever since. Go figure?????
(This is a 1,000% true story)

Which is exactly why I was trying to contact them through mturk. :wink:

But when I submitted the message I got an Amazon error that the message failed, so I don't think that account is active anymore.

I have a good feeling you'll be able to get yourself unsuspended. Fingers crossed.

It's so annoying, though.

Many of these things do get resolved successfully.

Curiously, I'm not able to sign on to my requester account, either.
(It has a separate balance of "prepaid HITs" which I cannot access).

My inherent distrust of Amazon (based on others' experiences) helped mitigate damages:
Never leave any moneys on deposit with Amazon for longer than you absolutely have to.

Did you get the scary email, too, or was this just out of nowhere? I am so sorry. <3
It just happened when I visited my queue.
(Then I telephoned Amazon, and the email I posted before was a 'response' to that).

Ugh! That is why I transfer daily. Hope they do resolve it quickly for you!
