I already got paid for accepting the task, but I am talking about actually doing the task for the requester. My lot has little to no control over this. I recently accepted a task to write articles up to ten dollars per one. I got an email that asked for a first draft. It pays two dollars to do for four hundred words. He says afterwards he will send more. Also it says requests over ten dollars no PayPal fees. But each article is less so where are the stats kept. He has a bunch of tasks to do here on my lot. He is like the only one with like ten. Anyone complete any of his stuff and get paid?

I feel most are legit.. Ive done 34 and 33 have paid me. So Id say most if not all are good.

i think doing jobs or transactions outside mylot is not a good idea.
but their offers are sometimes tempting.
i tried doing a PTSU task before to join megatypers.
mylot paid me for joining it.
but megatypers are scamming a lot of their workers.
and they didn't even let me get my money.

Well my first gut feeling was a scam. But now the guy has gotten back to me and it changes things. Most of the time they won't even bother getting back to you at all. I saw other 2 dollar article jobs on mTurk so I am thinking it might be worthwhile to at least give it a try. But since he has so many tasks and such it just seems like it might be a waste.

Thanks for the input. It's not done exactly through mylot though which is why I was asking mainly. Any other suggestions?
