    Realized that my Prime account was due on the 31st so I decided to cancel my Prime account in retaliation for the suspension (I have Walmart+ too so it's all good). Shockingly, it told me I would get a full refund in a few days! So glad I decided to be petty!

    I’ve had the suspended error message since Sunday. :emoji_tired_face:
    I’ve been a worker since 2017 and have never had an issue like this before. Does anyone have any theories as to why this is happening?

    Its difficult to pin-point really. Every time we find a common theme somebody breaks the notion. The best theory is that Mturk has their head up their butt and doesnt know jack what they are doing.

    They suspended the account of the Turker Nation's head this morning, according to their slack.

    And as these suspensions are continually ongoing... anyone could be next. Is Amazon trying to suspend the entire Mturk workforce or what... :emoji_face_palm:

    The last time there was a mass murder of accounts, it had something to do with a particular HIT these people did. It was something crazy like a penny for the task and a $100 bonus. I don't know if a poison requester could cause an account suspension. I blame AI.

    I haven't had Prime in a while since Walmart became available in my area. Anything I want quick I can get same day from Walmart. Anything weird or niche I can get on eBay or Temu for half the price of Amazon.

    So weird that Amazon is doing so much with a platform that barely anyone knows about internally when doing nothing would be far better than the current landscape.

    Can you enter your bank info back in there?
    At this point, I'm concerned someone is stealing our banking info. No one word from Amazon, this could be a massive hack. I guess they won't address it unless it shows up on the 5 o'clock news.

    there are other sections to Amazon that do a TON of stuff and yet other sections of Amazon have no idea about them. trust me....Amazon seems to be totally sectioned off internally for some unknown reason
