Hi,

I received orders for MTPE (English-Russian) of general news, Twitter messages, etc. from three different agencies, and it is a bit odd that the subject and volume are the same. Has anyone received such emails? Do you have any thoughts, is it ok or am I too cautious?

Hi Irene,
I was offered in the past a similar task. Some companies training MT engines have large dataset of tweets and news that they divide into batches of similar volumes. So there is nothing suspicious in my opinion. Just a boring job

All of them have probably been contacted by the same end client, and now try to get it done.
