For those of you who are members of mturk.com. I hope you can help me. I have $74 in my account. I converted it to gift card balance because I'm not US/Canada user who can withdraw it to his/her bank account. My problem is, I tried to purchase from Amazon website but they couldn't ship merchandise to my address here in the Philippines. I looked for any downloadable software but I don't like games. None of those downloadable products there can be of interest to me. After careful considerations, I thought of letting someone from US (who is trustworthy and willing) to purchase using my $74 gift card balance and in exchange, he/she pays me $60. It's not that easy because our world is now swarmed with dishonest people who take advantage of online anonymity. But I'm still hoping someone can help me.

Too bad here, i cant help u much on that.. I'm not a member of that site, and neither do i have that much in my paypal to help u out with it too 
BUt i guess there should be quite a member of mylotters whom will be willing to help u with it, for most of them are trustworthy ^_^
IF not, u might just have to hold on to the money or spend it on soemthing u might like in the later stages.. hehe

The only reason I want that money out is to be able to use it in some investments but since it sounds compromising. I may just keep it as it is. I'm just wondering if they ever forfeit the value of the GC if that is left unused for a long time. I'm waiting for my time to reach US to be able to work there but that may be in a while.

You should check the TOS if they allow you to do such a think (to let someone else in your account and purchase the gifts for you)

I also doubt it can be done without considering it illegal. Anyway, I only go for whatever that is appropriate. If there's no other way, I'll just leave that money lying there. In the near future, God willing, my family is going to migrate to US, and only then, I can continue my MTurk career.
