Do extensive research on the coin/token. That's it. But there's actually no way to know for sure. It's not like you lose anything when joining airdrops anyway, as airdrops should be free; unless you're handing over your private keys(which you definitely shouldn't).

Then buy the reputable ones if you don't like risking investing on new coins/tokens. You want the safest ones and make sure you don't get scammed? Go buy bitcoin and or ethereum instead.

If you mean a coin that's in Pre-Sale or ICO stage, you can wait for it to be listed on reputable exchange(s).

However, because the crypto space is still largely unregulated, it very easy to get scam, like you'r already aware.

So, the best advice anyone can give you it to take time and read up, learn about the market psychologies, how to research a project/coin, how to manage your exposure to risk/scam, stay updated with crypto related news,etc.

It's takes effort and time, but the education will pay far more than the time and effort invested in it in the longrun .

Based on the project team, if there is a Linkedin link to test their capabilities.
Check the project idea is ambiguous or not?
Check domain registration information, website.

There are too many fake airdrops everywhere. They are trying to get your private keys, Details, Identity documents and more. Don't trust all airdrops. If you can do a research about that airdrop project, You can get an idea that airdrop is legit or scam.

The best thing to do is to check the token or coin it self, like who run this tokens project, the ICO already started? Just starting? Or the project does not exist at all... dont just blindly join every air drop you saw.... it will just make you cry. Haha
