In fact, it is often seen that many companies serve pictures of their team members in such a beautiful way and provide links on social media but later it is seen that when their ICO / IDO is over, they cannot be found.  What is the way to recognize them?  And will the website you provide understand that all those people are doing scams?

And will the website you provide understand that all those people are doing scams?

This is, unfortunately, impossible to know.
Because criminals use photos of models or good people, which they pick up over the internet. Therefore, one of them will be true and not a fraud. In addition, nowadays it is already possible to get faces from people, made by AI. Which don't appear anywhere, if not on that fraudulent website.

Therefore, it is up to each of us to be attentive to various details and to try to understand if, in the set of information available, it is coherent and makes sense.

Most criminals miss some detail that the most attentive will be able to identify and suspect the situation. But unfortunately a good number of them assemble everything very well which makes it all more difficult.

What is the way to recognize them?

There are a lot of steps to take if you want to recognize a scam project but the information provided by the project owner is what will trigger the step you needed to follow to be sure if the project or team are genuine.

And will the website you provide understand that all those people are doing scams?

No, the site provided by the above user is used to check images online because some scammers make use of models or bought some pictures on Shutterstock, so the duty of the site provide use the result of the image you search on their portal.

The following is a and old post of mine, but it serves it's purpose to show how these tools may be used. The tools themselves help to find sites with a matching image, similar or identical to the one you provide the tool to search for.

<…> Fake identities are behind many ICO Scams. You can use tools such as Reverse Photos (https://reverse.photos) to detect cases such as these. For example, I just captured the first lass from your image (Charlotte Cox), and even with the bad image quality, I managed to get at least six more identities associated to the same exact photograph:

The above case was extracted from a site where people were providing false testimonials and opinions on a given mining site. The woman in the picture, allegedly called Charlotte Cox on her profile, turns out to be quite a few other people as per the above quote. That is one of the easy red flags to bear in mind.
