It is really hard to detect scammed bounty campaign. After completing all the requirements to be able to get accepted in a bounty campaign, spending much time to participate in forums and not to mention carrying their banners, completing all the tasks and reports then all of a sudden you will just find out that you have been scammed already. luckily I am not the only one but to think all participants did the same efforts as well as you did. But it is really happening, lesson learned and could be just charge it to experience and move on. If we could only find out at early stage if we were in to scam or a legit bounty campaign. Who would really know anyway?
You can often detect scams by looking into the background of the people listed as the projects participants, this will eliminate most, but not all the scams. You will still get scams were they unilaterally change the bounty after the ICO is funded like IUNGO did to all its bounty participants. Or just disappear like HashCard. About all you can do when that happens is make sure that their reputation follows them and that they become industry pariahs.
