Title: Are you newbie looking for perceive income? Just be careful of AIRDROP
Post by: TheEconomists on May 05, 2020, 01:03:22 PM
If you are newbie and you are looking for ways of making some  Bitcoin and other altcoin, be very CAREFUL with AIRDROP campaign as many of them out there are out to scam/milk you with the little ones at your disposal. Sometimes, they are out to get your personal information like email address, etc and sell it out for money.
Some of them will tell you to send some amount of BTC or ethereum to their address as fee for you to get the aclaimed airdrop reward of which they will later run away and mute their telegram channel.

Be warn is to be armed.

Before opening this topic I think by the title that maybe there some money-making tips remain in the post. But it is not :) yes you are right about the recent airdrop. Most of them are fake and looking to steal people's money and personal information. And most of the victims are who are newbies and highly searching the way of earning money online. But newbies should care about their personal information. And this post will be a good lesson for newbies.

The title of the thread is really different on the content that you have said, saying about "Are you a newbie looking for how to make btc and thereum? is really different on having a content about airdrop, but anyway, most of the beginners always grab the opportunity on that airdrop because that what it should be, as a normal people we also should grab the opportunity especially this airdrop because it is an easy money. But always make sure that you are trying the legit airdrop because most of them are not legit and will lead you to scam, and the worst thing it that you may lose your money if you input some of yours.
But newbies should care about their personal information. And this post will be a good lesson for newbies.
The information that they will going to give on that airdrop can be use by scammers and hackers on some purposes, it may result on identity theft.

things may have been different a couple of years ago like in 2013  but nowadays whenever someone is giving away something (seemingly) for free there is always a catch. usually they want something in return like what OP says (personal information) but also sometimes they are after the bitcoins you may already have. and to do that there is a lot of malware being spread as "wallets" of the said coin which the user has to download if they want to receive the "free" coins. and as they do their computer is infected and they lose their bitcoins.

Yes you are right. Everyone is attracted to Airdrop because it is easy money. It can be earned without any effort. Not everyone wants to miss out on this opportunity. But this is their misconception. Taking advantage of this greed of the people, the scammers take their various information. I have seen many times, some airdrop have taken people's kyc information. Newbies give their important information to scammers without realizing it. Scamming money through Airdrop is a very popular scamming system. Every day I watch fake giveaway videos on youtube. So everyone should stay away from such airdrop and giveaway.

Not surprisingly, because this is a common occurrence in the crypto room and cases like this have occurred a long time ago. But if you are several years before this, there may be many airdrops that produce and look legit.

Sometimes, they are out to get your personal information like email address, etc and sell it out for money.
Some of them will tell you to send some amount of BTC or ethereum to their address as fee for you to get the aclaimed airdrop reward of which they will later run away and mute their telegram channel.

If you can find an airdrop program like that, report it and stay away and never send your details there. Fraud efforts through the airdrop program I think are not new, although it often happens but it is good because you try to remind other beginners to be careful.

Remember, never give your details to get a few dollar from Aridrop and I think the amount will not be proportional to the security of your personal information.

The airdrop program is only to retrieve their data which is so easily attracted by a small reward and this is only done by beginners who do not know what they are doing KYC just like that even though personal data is very important compared to the wage of dollar which is not much. the biggest airdrop now for $ 10 is also bullshit.

Scamer always makes a way to do what they want while the hunters, if there is an airdrop, do the action right away and don't do research first so that's what makes newbi trapped.

Need to avoid airdrop that is not very clear.

I won't recommend joining airdrops as it is not the best way to earn money. Most of it are scams so it is much better to use any skills you have and then you' surely earn money. Your skill will be your basis in what you will do. There are some people with skills and they use it on crypto which really help them what they want to do. Take note that joining airdrop is not the only way to earn crypto.

Not all members understand the correct airdrop and some airdrops look the same so when passing through without realizing avoiding the actual airdrop. Of course, some methods are needed to predict airdrop scammers and bounty scammers too.
This is my own method to detect scam airdrops and bounties.

1.) The first thing is check the website and the Team Profile verify if they are real people and has knowledge with crypto and the field of expertise. In most cases a scam website only shows the token sales and what wallet address you need to send your money.

2) 2nd the most common tool for scammers are Google Form they used it to pretend that there is an ICO airdrop this is commonly seen in twitter. They are asking for contribution.

3) Next is the Telegram Channel / Telegram Group in most cases newly made are scams. Based on my observation you can say 100 % scam if the group is a supergroup with restrictions in adding bots only admin can add bots if you see any airdrop channels promoter bot then for sure marked it another scam.

4) For me whitepaper , twitter are not the least priority to check. Why? They can easily made it up.

5) And also never share your MEW private keys they will steal your coins with no hesitation.

The best thing is to always verify the airdrop and bounties you are going to participate with.
Additionally, use alternative e-mails for every airdrop submission to be aware of if you are stuck on an airdrop scam

Airdropd were really profitable till late 2017.
The main purpose from conducting airdrop was to raise awareness about new projects and attract investors.
Things changed and scammers discoverd that conducting fake airdrops is the easiest and cheapest way to fool newbies.
In the past, to receive free tokens, all you had to do is to provide your receiving address, now they will ask for personal information (email, id, picture...) or ask you to pay for fees which is ridiculous.

Not to forget that airdrops were a main factor to get more people into the crypto world. Many of the well experienced carreers here started with looking for easy money in bounties and giveaways. But this doesn't make it legit or safe to use.
From what i can tell, during the last three years, most airdrops were made either to scam investors money by promoting a fake token, or it's a sheme for identity thief if the airdrop requires user to submit personal info.

There is nothing totally free in the world. You all have to do something and pay something to get earnings. About personal data, you have to be very careful. There is no guarentee from any company that your personal data won't be sold or breached. Being careful about KYC too.
Using thrown away email is a good alternative for your main email if you want to try using new platforms.
Why KYC is extremely dangerous – and useless (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5221497.0)

It is obviously scam. They use a same scam method like these scammers. Scammers on Youtube. Don't fall into this scam trap and lose money, guys (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5198456.0). When you see such scammers, report them to Youtube.

Yes, and I still remember the beginning I jumped into bitcoin also in 2017 and the beginning I know airdrop is quite promising.

But as time goes by the longer the more they are scam,
finally prefer to follow the bounty / campaign at this time.

And I hope the bounty or campaign now doesn't end up like the airdrop trend that used to be a lot of scams

Indeed, forget about it once and for all. Don't get trapped on such false hopes. Instead of paying attention on "easy money" schemes, choose to study on how to trade. Whether it is daytrading or hodling, it will be all worth of your time because you know that it was a legit way of earning :).

And I hope the bounty or campaign now doesn't end up like the airdrop trend that used to be a lot of scams
Not good either dude. Though I haven't experienced being a bounty hunter, I might say that they are also no longer profitable according to the bad comments from the audiences. Everything change after the ATH. Hmm, what remains the same I think is the sig campaigns (aside from merit requirements) :D.

Excuse me, selling your email to another is not a problem, you lose nothing here, I use strong password and 2FA for my email, goodluck trying to hack my email, the only thing scammers do with emails is spamming them with lots of phishing links


If you are not greedy you won't fall for these stupid scam tricks, all other scam tricks always end in asking users to make deposit, they will tender something promising though, greed is a bitch

There have been many similar topics like this one, so I think you don't need to present it again. Btw airdrop is still a good option for you to make money, but before participating in airdrops you should do research and should only participate in the airdrop listed at the exchange.

The stupid mistakes that people do online is believing that online money is for free, well the fact is money making online is as hard as the offline work too, you have to work hard to earn, so when you come across easy tasks for thousands of dollars why won't that raise your eyebrow? Nothing is for free in this world, you should hate free money, they  are greed wakers, and we have greed in us all, don't we?

Just like what happened in around the year 2017 or bull run before, which a lot of airdrops happened in the Altcoin Section of this forum. Most of them are fake or scam, like maybe you are lucky if out of 10 airdrops there is 1 legit. Although you will receive some altcoins from them there is no value at all or their project is purely fake, fake team members, fake whitepaper, fake roadmap, etc.

If you participate in 100 airdrops in this market, then I think you will succeed with 1-5 airdrops. There are so many shady airdrops and scams in this market they just want to steal our information and will never distribute tokens.

Airdrop asking for KYC to receive their coins or tokens should be a big NO NO. Aside from ending up with value of few bucks, your identity is at risk. You should stay away those kind of airdrop. Also, a lot of airdrops are worthless, maybe way back 2017 you can get valuable coins, but nowadays, if you can find a good one, that's rare.

Lets just say there are legit and will give you airdrop tokens. However, the tokens you have gained is it valuable? Or can you at least buy 1 cup of coffee on starbucks with that? Or even the cheapest sachet coffee powder cant be bought. The point is, most airdrop doesnt have much higher value and making them not worthy to join. For me, airdrop is a marketing token and we should have some money out of it from a very small task that we have done like share something on Twitter. Even its just a very light task, it can help them reach appropriate people who would be interested on their project. But it seems airdrop now are reall dissapointing so better avoid it and just join a bounty campaign handled by reputable manager.

Airdrop is hardly a way of earning passive income, from what I understand about airdrop most of the token airdrop are not even traded yet so not possible to see it as a passive income, although sometimes you can be lucky with some airdrop, immediately they are listed in exchange they have good price and you can earn good money, but nowadays airdrop are mostly worthless, just like a waste of time.

If getting lucky that might happen to you but most of the time those airdrops are worthless, just a waste of time and space inside your wallet. Those who gets lucky are able to trade the tokens that they've got from participating.  Luck pays a big role from this kind of situation, if you don't get the right project then move on and forget about it.

Lots of people already warned others about those airdrops. Even if they are not scam, its not worth the time you would be spending to claim and them and managing them. The value of those coins are really low, after all they are "free coins" that gets distributed on large scale.
Yeah, like you said, other airdrops that collects your information are likely to sell those to other people. So, if you value your privacy and would like to be safe from identity theft, do avoid those Airdrops.

Using a few dollars to get the information and identity of a real person may not be appropriate, and as soon as we receive such requests, we really just feel airdrop is not useful then ignore it to avoid the danger, new people may not be knowledgeable enough to earn income from here but your judgment is pretty much too subjective. Because you can get bad rewards and bad experience with airdrops but except for you, a number of people still know how to work effectively with airdrops, nothing is useless if you know how to use it

Yes, I agree that we must be careful of airdrop because not all airdrop can give us money by participating with the programs. Many of them are end of scamming people and run away with the document of the participants because many projects need the participants to send their primary documents to them. We need to protect our document and not to give to any project that we don't know because that document contains our real identity.

There is no social network platform where scammer/spammer not try to their shit job. Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Telegram (haven of spammer ;D), reddit even everywhere scammers try to cheat people specially who are new in crypto land.

Many newbies fall into their traps because of some worthless token. I do not participant in airdrop cause most of them are scam or valueless. I agree that we are still see some good projects bring good quality airdrop which is worthy but those amount of projects are very low and newbies are never find out legit airdrop between thousands of scam airdrop project.

So it's better stay away from it and do not join those airdrop which prefer to send money or sensitive document.

We can reduced the risk when we participate in airdrops. The most important thing for participating airdrop is don't give them money from your pocket, whatever it say as fee or anything else. For airdrop that require KYC for participate, look carefully about their team, project, etc. Don't submit KYC if they just give you little money.

Some of them will tell you to send some amount of BTC or ethereum to their address as fee for you to get the aclaimed airdrop reward of which they will later run away and mute their telegram channel.

Be warn is to be armed.

Not only newbies there are still old members here who still goes for airdrops, and you can't blame them, some airdrops are profitable but that is out of 100 or more airdrops, but if they are compiling email for spamming, that will not do good as it will only end up on spam folders, and of course sending funds to get your airdrop is a big no no.

Airdrop is now no longer just a beginner done even with a high ranking account. They often join the airdrop, maybe there, they just want to look for luck, because the average airdrop now ends with a scam even though KYC has been sent too, so I'm here too careful if joining the airdrop isn't so haphazard.

This is true, and this one is really alarming for everyone. That is why newbies and anyone who continuously participating in airdrops should avoid those airdrops that require everyone to submit KYC verification to avoid their personal information to be stolen.

There are many airdrop project in crypto market  but join before you know about Airdrop because first of all there is a matter of information that they are thinking of scanning but they have to work very carefully and submit their documents.

What are the types of airdrop scams?

Dump Airdrops
Private Key Scams
Information Trolling
Bait and Switch

Airdrops these days are too different from the airdrops that we had a few years ago. We have earned good rewards through airdrops before by just doing simple tasks and we're not asked to provide most of our personal details. It's risky to join airdrops nowadays because they're requiring us to provide our personal details including our social media accounts. They're asking us to do lots of tasks but still ending up being unpaid.
If you're just a newbie, you better not fall for this kind of trap and try to look for better ways to earn in the Crypto world. Airdrops now are ways of scammers to deceive and fool beginners.

actually the airdrop campaign can still be profitable, but our level of caution in participating must be more guarded. fraud can occur, beyond that airdrop campaigns that do not provide benefits will always be there and our ability will be widely used when looking for a profitable airdrop.

You nailed it out and that's the truth, many airdrops today are not worth the attention let alone efforts given to them, because they are clearly out to scam unsuspecting people of their hard earned money. What surprises me is the fact that, a project carrying out an airdrop campaign will then ask the users to send ETH for transfer fee, to activate wallet and so on, funny enough some people will still send. So I just hope newbies will come across this post and be enlightened so that they won't continue falling for scams all in the name of airdrops. Another to watch out is those asking for private keys and so on.

This is exactly the business that they've seen by taking advantage the people who likes to join airdrops. They're sell it to marketing agencies and that's why if you have something in your email like an endorsement from an ICO without remembering you've signed up one. Then the past fill up application that you have filled with an airdrop or of the same already sold or sent it to a marketing agency so that you'll be one of their recipients.

Some of them will tell you to send some amount of BTC or ethereum to their address as fee for you to get the aclaimed airdrop reward of which they will later run away and mute their telegram channel.

Airdrops became popular around 2017 and during that time there were several very good airdrops that had decent reward, i have seen people making good bucks but after that the quality of airdrops has dropped mostly we get is useless tokens that do not have an exchange or value and even there are scams and phishing attempts too in the name of airdrops so personally i do not recommend them now.

Newbies usually fall traps easily, so it is not a good idea to advise any form of an airdrop to the inexperienced users. The spam emails and useless tokens are the known part of the story, there are more on background of the process. New accounts open a different version of the same airdrops and ask the personal details which can be used for decrypting the identity or sensitive information. This information is useful for finding the passwords on the crypto exchanges.

things may have been different a couple of years ago like in 2013  but nowadays whenever someone is giving away something (seemingly) for free there is always a catch. usually they want something in return like what OP says (personal information) but also sometimes they are after the bitcoins you may already have. and to do that there is a lot of malware being spread as "wallets" of the said coin which the user has to download if they want to receive the "free" coins. and as they do their computer is infected and they lose their bitcoins.
The malware issue spread through supposed wallet download is the reason I do not like participating in any bounty that has such attached to part of the condition for hunters. And so far I have not have any issue with missing coin through hacks. I believe most hacks happen through this method.

One of  my core words especially to a newbie is the need and importance of understanding the basics of crypto currency.
Before you even gather the idea of joining airdrops or bounties; you need to have an understanding (basics) of what you are getting into.

First learn how crypto currency works, private keys, blockchain wallets; how to stay safe, learn and understand the principles first before joining airdrops.
So that when you join airdrops, with the knowledge you have, you are able to identify true or fake ones.

Don't just rush into airdrops, always do your own research

Can we really say the bounties is some how free from scam? I don't think so because, there are so many investors and participants who do complain of been scammed bounty program that was advertised here in this forum. So I don't bounty campaign is completely free the said problem.

I am not participating in any airdrop for a very long time because there is no point in collecting shit coins with no value and majority are made to collect your data and i have seen many bounties asking for your identify verification in the premise that it will be used to verify that you are not cheating them, pretty convincing stuff but i will pass all these bullshit.

Some of them will tell you to send some amount of BTC or ethereum to their address as fee for you to get the aclaimed airdrop reward of which they will later run away and mute their telegram channel.
If you understand that there is nothing free available you will not fall for scams, there are scammers preying everywhere for victims and if you have that idea on the back of your mind, you will not fall prey :).

bounty campaigns and airdrops often occur scams but for beginners I think it doesn't matter because it can be used as an experience that can be saved so that they will know which projects are scam or not, at least participating in a number of bounty campaigns and airdrops can be a bit of aiding the economy when lucky.

no wonder, if most of the prize hunters still rely on this token or hunt for free tokens through the Airdrops campaign. today many airdrops have sprung up but I am personally not interested in that. it's important for anyone to be vigilant and never send et gas costs just to claim tokens from airdrops!

Actually airdrop is an effective alternative to get rewards for a newbie. As long as we know the risks and forbidden things we must do to avoid fraud. Some things you should consider when you want to join airdrop, IMHO:
- Make sure that airdrop news events are legit. Check the official account of the organizer, and ask the truth.
- Don't join airdrop which requires you to make a deposit first, it's a scam, as the OP explained above
- Do not be easily provoked with large rewards, usually, it's the maximum range if the highest price is reached, understand that
- Do not carelessly do KYC only for a few airdrops, your personal identity is very important

A few days ago I found a website that is quite trustworthy, although it is still in the development stage, the information is complete and good (does not include Reff like most similar sites), please try here https://dropsearn.com/events/active/

There are many looking for free token and many has been a victim of scam of AirDrop. Since I once a victim of scam I never join again even fill-up for the AirDrop. It is a must to verify first if it a legit and worthy of your time to join.

That mistake is a very valuable lesson. That makes you more concerned and serious about analyzing before deciding to join. Remember, don't just be profit-oriented. Scammers often use airdrop to get your identity by giving KYC conditions or stealing your funds by giving conditions to make a deposit to get a reward.
IMHO, only join airdrop from an exchange or a really promising project. Upbit often holds airdrops to celebrate the first listing of a coin or token, first come first serve, so we must always update the news.

This seems to be a topic for any time now because the Scammers are here for years now,airdrop is what they mostly milk in when mostly the victims are those who are giving their personal details to be part but in the end those shit scammers will only use the details to sell in 3rd party's.

Airdrop is supposed to be free and easy to obtain. If there is an airdrop that requires a variety of documents or must pay with crypto, then we better avoid it because the tokens from the airdrop may not be listed on the exchanger and valuable when listing on the market.

It is okay to chase for airdrops but they should know their limits and what to avoid on airdrops.
For me no matter how great the project is if they are asking about personal information's I would just skip that airdrop.
I don't also promote joining on airdrop that require some payment just to claim their free tokens or crypto after all it is free so why would we need to pay for anything?
If you want to chase some airdrops do it but choose which project you would follow.

Yes, its way to different in joining airdrop now. Its not guarantee that they will pay you after fulfilling a simple task they want. Sometimes they will listed in exchange but its valueless. It's now a waste of time joining airdrops. It's not the same at it is. No matter what don't give your personal information or pay them initially for fees. It will end up with nothing.

But always make sure that you are trying the legit airdrop because most of them are not legit and will lead you to scam, and the worst thing it that you may lose your money if you input some of yours.
But newbies should care about their personal information. And this post will be a good lesson for newbies.
The information that they will going to give on that airdrop can be use by scammers and hackers on some purposes, it may result on identity theft.

Your skill will be your basis in what you will do. There are some people with skills and they use it on crypto which really help them what they want to do. Take note that joining airdrop is not the only way to earn crypto.

Newbie in the Crypto can only go for airdrops because it cost nothing no rank to qualify, there are still a lot of good airdrops but it's too time-consuming and the wait is very long I still have not received airdrops that I claim 6 to 10 months ago, bounty campaign is still preferable.

I agree that airdrops are mostly scams, but there are still around 5% profitable airdrops. We just need to do research and analysis
correctly. Then we can get legit airdrops. And I also agree that airdrops are the best way to produce crypto. There are still many other
more profitable ways, but if you want to produce cryptocurrency from airdrops. That doesn't matter, My advice is to avoid airdrops that
require KYC procedures, because our personal information is not comparable to the profit we get from airdrops.

That does not still mean there is no good airdrop and participating in bounty does jot also mean you cannot be exposed to scam. Although bounty programmes really ask you to send something before receiving your coins, I suspect it will soon start happening. What grieves me more is after wasy=ting so much Time in promoting a project through bounty campaign and it is later discovered as a scam, it will make one sad and cause heartbreak. In fact, it will make you not to trust others again I care is not taken.

I really hate airdrops as so many time i had faced trouble due to it.
I've collect so many airdrops but unfortunately 95% of them were with no value.  So nowadays i avoid airdrops and
 i suggest, stay away from that

If you are newbie and you are looking for ways of making some  Bitcoin and other altcoin, be very CAREFUL with AIRDROP campaign as many of them out there are out to scam/milk you with the little ones at your disposal. Sometimes, they are out to get your personal information like email address, etc and sell it out for money.
Some of them will tell you to send some amount of BTC or ethereum to their address as fee for you to get the aclaimed airdrop reward of which they will later run away and mute their telegram channel.
Be warn is to be armed.

Yes, there is no good airdrops available right now. All of them are just a waste of time, they are just collecting emails and people to become part of their channels or social media and then their participants will receive nothing or sometimes they will only receive a coin with no value.

And I also agree that airdrops are the best way to produce crypto.
What do you mean by this? Producing crypto is not hard as you know, what hard is create a promotion and marketing strategy for a project to have a value. Even without airdrop there are plenty of ways on how to become a good project. Airdrops are used as promotional giveaway and in return people will help them in a form of marketing by sharing their project to everyone. I joined a lot of airdrops too and 50% are useless and some are just created to create hype not real one. These projects are the one we should avoid and if ever we encounter, just ignore cause you dont want to waste time on their non sense project.

All your warnings are very relevant friend.  Airdrops are just fraudulent ways devised by scammers nowadays to swindle newbies, greedy and innocent persons of their little hard earned efforts.  Bulk of these are on telegram and other social media.  Besides scamming people of their money, some created airdrops to get peoples data/documents to be used in another place, attracts users to their telegram channels in order to be used for other purposes among others. Don't be too greedy and be extra careful before you opt in for any airdrop so that it won't be a waste of time and other precious resources.

Warning information should be tagged in this way. Everyone knows what's going on now and the scam of giving before receiving has be circulating for a while and most people knows about it. Aidrops are still profitable if you are lucky to do the right but that's 2 in 20.

If the airdrop is still lucky 2 out of 20, it will be very difficult to find it, because in percentage only 2% are still good and good, the rest is still in the unprofitable or scam category, so following the airdrop also still looks like a waste of time on currently.

Any airdrop asking for BTC or ETH before you can get your reward is obviously scam. Some will go as far as tricking newbies to submit their private keys, at least out of many, a few will still fall prey. Most will give tokens worth almost negligible amounts, but a few are cool. You just need to be selective with the kind of airdrops you do. I remember the good old days when i got XLM via airdrop, it was stress free and worth it. I think about 5k xlm, but hey things changed.

Everyone? I don't think so. If you look around, there's still plenty of airdrop joiners and that makes them not aware of it. Maybe they do and maybe not but if they do, probably they are aware of the risk and knows that their efforts might vanished.

Aidrops are still profitable if you are lucky to do the right but that's 2 in 20.
I disagree, maybe it's profitable to the developers but not to airdrop joiners.

well, I totally agree with what you say because at the moment only a few airdrops can really produce results because many airdrops are only trash tokens in the wallet.

The urge to get paid and sell to Eth etc, is one of the reasons why most people ends up getting scammed because they tend to throw caution to the wind. There are many dead groups on telegram of which some were created for one airdrop or the other. As to add my own opinion, newbies should be careful of airdrops that asks for private keys, ETH, or even to sign a message using private keys all in a bid to get their rewards; legit airdrops doesn't ask for these.

Today, getting an airdrop is not give much money, and many of the airdrops doesn't have a price or market. I think the trend of airdrop is ended, and you need to search the other way to make money. You can get the reward if you join in an airdrop, but you will hard to sell the token or coin from the airdrop because many of the projects cannot get listed on the exchanges. But you can still search for the airdrop and try to get the reward by participating in the programs, but you should remember that right now, it is hard to make money from the airdrop.

I have participated in many airdrops and I totally agree with you that many of them are scams. I felt stupid to say that participating in airdrops was completely free and I didn't lose anything. So now I get so much spam that I have to get rid of the emails I have used for over 5 years.

Airdrops aren't dangerous unless you are asked for deposits, it's either you don't get paid at all or tokens become worthless and living helpless in your wallet, greedy people become a Airdrop scam victim, Airdrops are free, don't make deposits

Yes, airdrop is basically harmless if it is made by authorized companies or exchanges and it is also free, so there is no story to make any deposit to get a token, this is something that everyone should understand.

Well, airdrop is a free event to get some cryptocurrencies from a specific or certain project which is held to disseminate free cryptos so you do not have to pay for it. It will be an obvious scam in airdrop if someone will ask you to send out some Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies to be able to claim your reward because it must not be that way. Actually airdrops are safe events and can provide you assurance to have part on the distribution of coins depending on the number of participants registered on that event. It is easy to know or identify a scam airdrop once it was already asking you to send amount on a specified crypto wallet. That must be a thing that newbies need to know so that they won't get victimized by scam airdrop events.

Newbie, often greedy and want instant profits. So if there is an airdrop offer, it will be followed without further analysis. In the future, if their expectations are not as expected, they protest. In fact, the price range listed is only an estimate of the highest price, if you look at current market conditions, it is very difficult to achieve.

Some are even willing to do KYC only for offers no more than 10 $. Come on, we also have to care about personal identity, don't be pawned for money that is not much.
If you are interested in airdrops, choose airdrops that are held by trusted global exchanges. It's rare, there are many participants so we have to update and fast.

Even bounties are not entirely rewarding, you need to do good researches to be able to get valued projects to promote.

I agree with your opinion that there are many Airdop campaigns whose purpose is to get information from people. To avoid leaking personal information, you must select good project management teams. My experience is to select reputable bounty and airdrop management groups on this bitcointalk forum as Bounty Detective. I earn some money doing campaigns from this group. I hope there are many reputable airdrop project management groups on this forum to contribute to creating a transparent and safe cryptocurrency market for all investors.

Who doesn't want to get the money? I'm sure you want to.

It's natural because they are still beginners, you also when beginners make the same mistakes.

Digital era like this where you use Facebook, Google, you still think about privacy? I'm sure your ideal will fade with time.

always take care of your important documents, don't let others misuse them in their interests, there are lots of airdrops out there that require to fill in personal data, even asking for an ID card or SIM and some are asking for a passport with your photo, it's very dangerous in my opinion

Sometimes, these things are just unavoidable. For instance, in the use of email addresses. It is better you use an unofficial email address for airdrop so that when you receive spams, particularly those spas that are meant to phish and steal away your personal and private info, you right not have cause to fall victim.

whether they get my email from anywhere, that's why I often block e-mail spamer because it is very annoying

the only thing i see that you do wrong is you register or give them your email before , that's why they can send you many spam message in your email which is actually  not secured.

If you have plan to join or participate in any airdrop don't use your main email for that just create a brand new email to register so they cannot  send any spam message in your main email account.

They only increase the number of their supporters then use it for their personal benefit,

We have encountered a lot of the said situation, and yes they often change the group/account name to make it looks like its real in the eyes of their new victims. That's why we better avoid those kinds of airdrops because they only think of themselves and do not care about their participants.
