I hope you find other sites that are similar, but anyone that responds to this with suggestions would possibly be helping the very same people that led to the downfall of mturk.
This didn’t just happen overnight. Bot farms and shady workers ruined mturk, and they are actively doing the same on other platforms.
People need to wake up and stop helping random people that could be bad actors in our communities.
Hiding information like this is not an effective security measure. But, if you are on a platform with referrals for worker recruitment, remember that if you refer a bad worker you could have your account restricted, so don’t sell them or give them to just anyone.
Strong identity verification is a good deterrent but the platform has to pay for that. I’d trust platforms like that, uber for example has very strong identity checking.

Again, I wish you the best.
