    Amazon's qual HIT don't really work. I have a US High School graduation qual despite never attending school in the US, don't have any social media account apparently and many other problems. And yes, I have retaken the tests and input the same correct answers as the first time I did them and they just never update.

    If you allowed your browser to save your Google logon info then it should be in the password manager.

    It's really weird. This is the first time I've ever noticed being qual'd for something that I should not have been qualified for. I'm usually good about looking at the qualifications ahead of time, but clearly I failed today. :emoji_blush:

    It still asks for your google password or if you happen to have a password/pin on your computer it will ask for that before it reveals your password info.

    Mine doesn't, but I set it that way some time ago. Fwiw, I use FF so not sure if others have that option.

    Honestly, there may not be anything you can do about it, so don't worry too much. For example, in the social media account HIT, I clicked twitter, reddit, facebook and all of those returned a "account holder = 0", so you probably answered correctly and mturk just gave you the wrong one. I even contacted mturk support to let them know and they never bothered replying and nothing has changed since. I personally retake the HITs every 3-4months just so they are up-to-date and if they fix them in between, I can have the correct qual, but that's on mturk, not on us.

    You shouldn't waste your time trying to remember and type your passwords.

    Sound advice.

    I just took that phishing HIT yesterday-- ironically my mother asked me this morning to double check if an email she got was a phishing email. She got annoyed because I checked out the link and everything lol
