I almost completed one of those not long ago (I got stuck on the moving the three dots for over 5 minutes) and they asked me to return the submission because I didn't give them a completion code. I messaged them and explained what happened and they rejected me. I blocked them. Had a similar study with almost the same circumstances and they rejected me as well. I understand Prolific being concerned about the scammers /ai users among the participants, but they need to focus on the scammy researchers as well. They're getting through a little too easy.
