Is anyone actually catching a Mark Klein. You cant panda them unless theres something i dont know. I checked about 20 different ones and not one has the same url. Ive tried about 5 times to get one. I tried super fast too. I mean its not a big deal. Its just they're all gone within seconds

Hello,

At Amazon we take your security and privacy very seriously. As part of our routine monitoring, we discovered a list of email addresses and passwords posted online. While the list was not Amazon-related, we know that many customers reuse their passwords on multiple websites. Since we believe your email addresses and passwords were on the list, we have assigned a temporary password to your Amazon.com account out of an abundance of caution.

You will need to reset your password when you return to the Amazon.com site. To reset your password, click "Your Account" at the top of any page on Amazon.com. On the Sign In page, click the "Forgot your password?" link to reach the Amazon.com Password Assistance page. After you enter your email or mobile phone number, you will receive an email containing a personalized link. Click the link from the email and follow the directions provided.

Your new password will be effective immediately. We recommend that you choose a password that you have never used with any website.

You can also enable Amazon's Two-Step Verification, a feature that adds an extra layer of security to your account. In addition to entering your password, Two-Step Verification requires you to enter a unique security code during sign in. To learn more about Two-Step Verification, go to Amazon.com Help, go to Managing Your Account, and click More in Managing Your Account, and then click More under Account Settings.

Sincerely,

Amazon.com

You could change your password just to be sure. But I wouldn't click any links in the email.

Either someone reallllly likes these genomes or someone is scamming them. The latter makes more sense.

I say that because I'm 99% positive there was 9k of them last night. No way someone in their right mind is going to swallow 4.5k of them in a given day.
They are horrible and can't be done as quick as they seem to be getting done.

I've been wondering the exact same thing. Somebody may have some super secret super grabber script or something because they are gone instantly.

they are gone incredibly fast, though

If they raised the pay on their paragraph hits to .40, maybe, just maybe, they would be worth it. You'd think with all the money they've been given by Yahoo as well as many other big businesses, they would at least shoot for quality data. Then again, I suppose you can't expect quality data when you pay wages of a buck fifty an hour.

I might just break 12 bucks tonight. That's a movie ticket, or a cheap meal somewhere, or a new nail polish, or some fluffy socks.

I'm a glass is half full kinda gal.

I remember I used to enjoy working on them but something is different about them now.

They seem to reject more often, if that counts as something different. I just wish they would have created a qual for good workers years ago. This would have never been a problem.
