I've contact NedShift and let him fix my issue and sent us remaining reward, but he just ignored / delete message / banned me in Aeron Bounty Telegram Channel , so I've no choice , I've message Lauda and let me open a thread in the scam accusations section ....

I don't know why they don't paid original promised bounty reward and sold it to an exchange , do you all think it's a scam ?

If you are going to play around with "Alt" coins, then expect to get burnt by moves like this. 99% of the developers out there, even if they started with the best of intentions, will get greedy if it looks like they can make some easy money. It looks like a standard bait and switch took place, you expected the variables to stay the same but they were outside of your control.

They are too much scammer , for bounty hunter we can't do anything because project team control final decision, they paid for us their promise bounty reward or change rules at the end and scam us , that outside of our control , they don't care about their bitcointalk account or any red trust because they already success collect fund

There are too many SCAM ICOs /Bounty program.They just use bounties and signature campaign to get free advertisements and cheat members.Always join in any bounty program that is atleast run by a trusted member here

It is not their fault entirely if you look at it.
From what I have noticed ,as soon a new bounty thread is opened,we  number of post looking for bounties without even taking a look at the main thread or seeing if the ICO sounds legit.Some even start making videos,blog articles to get free tokens.If the project is a scam,they would have to figure that out before putting any efforts.

However,the above case is different.You cannot trust managers blindly.

maybe not a scam project , but they don't paid bounty participants promise reward, we still can called it SCAM , Official Telegram and bounty Channel ban and kick member because we leave negative comment, bounty participants being used and at the end throw away

In my opinion, not only potential ICO investors but also bounty participants have to do their own due diligence before decision on joining the project and starting to advertise it.
