    it seems like a lot of the surveys that are up are no good. like low approval ratings, asking for specific demographics but without putting a qual on it so everyone has to wade through those, not worth the pay even though they are green, etc.

    I just realized I could Accept $0.00 Hits as well. That's interesting.

    How are they still rolling out suspensions? On the Payments site no data loads and I'm getting errors on almost every page

    if anyone has the correct TO form and the TO twitter page

    and if you have the correct Amazon Payments email, phone number, twitter page

    can someone please post those as the first or amongst the top posts of tomorrow's thread? it would be so useful to have all that in 1 easily found place so people know the steps and where the latest updates might be.

    I probably won't be awake, so I can't find it all and post it at/near the top of tomorrow's thread.

    Sent to them, MTurk appeals, and Payments email. I'm also noticing something absolutely f***ed when trying to click the link from the "Your account has been suspended." It seems to be intermittently failing to load, and previously visited links to Amazon Payments are no longer reachable as well (I was in my Payments dashboard for some time but can't go back now)

    Wonder if none of us are actually suspended and there's a service level issue and/or attack.

    Also I wonder if this is why my account didn't see a suspension over the weekend because I never work during weekends, and it's only affecting accounts that are logged in whenever it dies/unverifies/wtfevers?

    Tell them you have been hacked, and you know you've been hacked because the friggin' site was down for a whole day, and they don't want to admit why it was down. But I really think your best bet is with Turkopticon.

    Yup. I checked in on the /r/mturk subreddit to see if there were any updates and saw that post. I just now tried it myself. So I'm assuming now it was a cyberattack Amazon won't admit to or they're overhauling something on those servers and just don't give a shit about telling us what's up. Wish I had thought to try that before and saved myself a few days of stress thinking I had done something wrong.
