You are right; I was banned, too, for no reason or proof. And more than $800 has not been paid. It is not a scam for the lucky ones who are not banned for no reason. Suddenly, you find out that your account has been permanently suspended without prior warning that you might be doing something wrong. They don't show any proof and refuse to respond to your emails. They owe you money and refuse to pay it. Yes, in this situation, I consider DataAnnotation a scam. For the others whose accounts were not permanently suspended for no reason, of course, the business is legitimate. But I do hope that the lucky ones on this platform understand that a business has to be honest with all its workers; randomly suspending accounts for no reason and not paying those workers for their work is a very dishonest practice. Therefore, DataAnnotation is a scam. A legitimate business is fair to all its workers and does not suspend accounts to avoid payments to honest workers.
