A SeeLevel scheduler has sent an additional email blast for this $1.00 task. In bright green highlight it mentions that it's 100% anonymous, no personal information is given or requested, and that they're setting them up for shoppers to use for an additional assignment starting Friday. And "it's a completely internal project".
This is from the scheduler who sent a previous email about it being a 15 second task. Which certainly is not accurate. It takes longer than that to create a fake name while creating an email account and then emailing See Level the password for the account as part of the sales transaction. Which by the way is a clear violation of the Terms of Service for this email provider.
An additional inaccuracy, LIE, is that it's 100% anonymous, LOL! Those who use an android device for most shops already know this. You'll need to manually disassociate the newy created fake email account from your other email accounts on your device. THEY ARE ALL ASSOCIATED. The email provider only knows about you changing the password, not that you voilated their ToS and SOLD the account. If you did the task on desktop/laptop it's still NOT 100% anonymous, the email provider has your IP address, location, and is aware of the other non fake accounts you may have. Assuming this is not a 2 part job task for one shopper, the other shopper who logs into this newly created account might get the verification screen that says "we noticed you're logging in from a new location" or "we noticed you're logging in from a new device". There's also a legitimate way to reclaim that email account. It would be interesting to know what is being sent to these emails and if it's businness/employment related as stated in the original email sent from the scheduler.
Can't wait to see what's coming up on Friday. A new $1.00 shop for the creation of a FAKE address within the shoppers IP address, zip code or general location? And then what? Another $1.00 shop for filling out online forms with the fake name?
The inaccuracies in the job description and the clear violation of another companies Terms of Service for their own monetary gain makes me suspicious of their business practices. This is not in line with how I do business as an Independent Contractor nor how I conduct myself in personal matters. And the measly $1.00 offering to make up a fake name on an email account and asking me to violate another companies ToS shows how much SeeLevel values me as an IC.
