Step by step
Look closely at the screenshot
Check whether the image shows the action the task asks for. Compare it with the description and the account named.
Watch out: A screenshot of a different page or account is a common fraud sign.
Check for reused links and accounts
Watch for the same link or account in many submissions. Reused links often mean the content was submitted before.
Watch out: Identical wording or layout across users signals copied proof.
Spot edited or doctored images
Look for blurred edges, uneven text or misaligned elements. Editors often leave marks around changed areas.
Watch out: If the image looks too clean or oddly cropped, zoom in.
Verify the details match
Confirm the date, platform and username match the task and user account. Small mismatches matter.
Watch out: A mismatch between the profile name and the screenshot is a red flag.
Approve only what you trust
When in doubt, reject the proof and explain why. A new proof is better than approving something questionable.
Watch out: Your fair review protects the task for everyone.
Common fraud patterns
Fake screenshots often reuse stock images or another user's work. Edited images may show copied text or background patches.
Reused links are easiest to spot when the same destination appears in different submissions.
Keeping your review fair
Judge every proof by the same rules and do not rely on a single glance. A consistent checklist keeps your task honest.
- How can I tell a screenshot was edited?
- Look for blurry edges, mismatched font, or oddly overlapping elements. Magnify and compare with a normal screen of the page.
- What should I do if the same link appears twice?
- Treat it as a reused link and reject the newer submission unless the user shows fresh, independent action. Note the reason.
- Can I reject proof because I am unsure?
- Yes. If a proof does not clearly match the task, reject it and ask for a new one. Unclear approvals make the task unfair.
- Why do I need to check so carefully?
- Because every approval gives out a reward. Rewards are credited only after a review confirms genuine work, and careful checking protects your task's value.
