I completed the study myself and after finishing it I suddenly got a warning saying they found “bot like activity.” The only thing I did differently was switch between tabs 2–3 times to check the time because I was worried the study might time out. I also got a few whatsapp and youtube notifications while doing the study. I wasn’t using any bot or automation at all. So now I’m wondering, can switching tabs a few times actually trigger this kind of warning? Has anyone else experienced this? Do i need to return the study ?

A year ago, I was going through one of the most difficult periods of my life. I had got myself into an unwanted situation by helping someone and paying around £10,000 through my credit cards. Unfortunately, that person betrayed me, took my money and disappeared. I was then left with a huge credit card debt and honestly had no idea how I was going to pay it back.
At a time when there was no one to reach out a hand and help me, I found Prolific.
I can genuinely say that Prolific came into my life at a time when I really needed it. The financial support I received through the platform helped me get through an extremely difficult situation and played a significant part in helping me pay off that debt.
I’m honestly emotional writing this because I still remember how helpless I felt back then. When there was no one around to lend me a hand or stand by me, Prolific was there in its own way and gave me an opportunity to help myself.
I am incredibly, incredibly grateful to the whole Prolific team. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for creating something that has made such a meaningful difference in my life.
When there was no one to reach out a hand and stand beside me, Prolific came along and helped me find a way forward.
Thank you, Prolific. Truly, thank you very, very much.
