Diff people got the same survey with diff wording. that's done often

 

[electrolyte]

I removed mine, please remove your quote.

I removed your worker ID from your quote and the last part where you included survey content but left the rest because it's not survey content and it's relevant to my response.

You don't ever give bank info to ANY survey. Not regarding that survey, but someone made a list of things you should never do, because some of these requ have agendas:

Do not do any HITs with THESE
- ONLY filling in a CAPTCHA with NO other questions, i.e. the HIT is obviously intended to automate CAPTCHA entry
- test zip code
- free trial
- click my link
- sending a text message
- entering your personal information
- asks for your credit or debit card number, or banking
- any HIT that asks you to download anything (see below)
- SEO work (see below)
- marketing (see below)

DO NOT DO anything that asks for any personal information at all - even your zip code. If you feel in your gut it's not on the level, IT'S NOT. Why? Because they are scams and you will not get paid for your work. Worse, your personal information will be used to send you spam, or steal your identity, or bill you fraudulently.

On top of that, anything SEO related;
- click my link
- post on my site
- comment on my post
- post on twitter/facebook/digg/stumble/technorati/etc.
- post on a forum, blog or website

On top of that, anything marketing related;
- call people and tell them about my company
- send mail/email about my company
- put up flyers for my company
- anything listed in the SEO list above

- Posting on craigslist, kijiji, forums, even your own blog is a no-no as well.
- Putting someone's button, widget, etc. on your blog/site.
- DO NOT DOWNLOAD SOFTWARE TO TEST, except Inquisit
- Being paid for a review or rating is also against the TOS.

@Admins: can this be stickied somewhere?

That's going to be my new life motto. Thank you. Can you be my life coach?
