Scammed in a bounty campaign

[Zocadas]

There can't be done anything if you are scammed by a campaign. But you can give a feedback with bad trust and put in the lunk to the campaign. But only do, if you are sure to have been scammed. Its necceserry to read the rules and to be sure of not spamming posts or the non countef posts are not in the categories that are not paid.

I'll report them in scam acusation section and sent feedback red trust for him. Read and understand with a project before we joining it is the best way to prevent ourselves to get scammed.

I've been scam by a huge project - Populous

A very well known project by bitcointalk

I participated on their Blog bounty, wrote a blog and sent an email. They stated i didn't email them before the end date of bounty

I screenshort and show to them. No replies

Even after several personal messages, post, email, and i am getting ignored.

Thinking that they might not seen my message, i just posted a sentence in their slack : "Where should i contact person regarding on bounties".

My slack is logged out, and where i tried to login, it stated my account username/password is wrong

Then i receive a mail : "You recently tried to sign in to Populous, but it looks like your account for that team is deactivated. We're sorry about that!"

Seriously?

I won't let that project go in such smooth tempo, they should pay for what they have done.

Yes a lot have been scammed and we can't do anything about it because there are some projects after the ICO had ended and would not pay the bounty participants. And we can't run after the developers because I'm sure they won't reply the concerns of people like us other than the investors which is mostly the case. The only thing we could do is post a feedback on a section here in this forum.

Hello guys especially to those who's been a long user of BTT. This thread is very informative and I just have a couple of questions. i'm still lurking to this forum and learning different ideas.

1. I noticed that there are lot of bounty campaigns. And in line with the topic, is it safe for me to say that Hero or Legendary rank bounty ICO manager is more safe to participate and less risk that they will not pay at the end of the project? Since they are carefully secure their reputation.

2. Can we also use trust system if bounty is proven a scam or they walked away from their participants? Like a negative trust to the manager of bounty? Please forgive me on this if I am wrong, just let me know the process on this.

Thanks guys I would really appreciate your response on my questions

The risk involve to use only one about account is like throwing yourself into lions den. Having multiple accounts with different will be much easier.

Where is the proofs you have got scammed by them?
Didn't populous was the one of successful project back then? Their price has increased more than 10x from ICO.

Hi! I just want to ask if anyone here been scammed in bounty campaigns? Some who joined the bounty campaign, did abide with the rules and did all the necessary tasks to do to qualify then at the end no payment recieved in their wallet? If so what did you do and if in case it happens what should be done?

The first thing you could only do for that is to contact the manager and ask the reason why you didn't receive your payment for that particular campaigns but if his answer is not good then you should post a scam accusation and seek for the help of DT members so that they will be force to give what they owe to you. But make sure that you didn't violate some rules of the campaign where you participated since you will be the one who will feel bad if you didn't tell the truth on why you didn't receive the bounty payments.

Correct, approach first the bounty manager on what happened into the project or into the payments why you are not being credited.If you do saw that all of the participants do have the same problem on payouts then most likely the Project is already a scam and being said posting scam accusation on the said project is the only thing you can do for now so that they would be get tagged by DT.

there's always a nicer way to try getting your rewards as most of the campaign managers loves to settle the issue in the proper way its just a case to
case issue me personally i have been forgotten in a signature campaign that's really give a good pay rate but after i send PM to the campaign manager
he pay me and apologize, but if there's nothing else left that's the time that you can create a scam accusation to that certain project or manager.

I never met such a scam, I am sorry about your encounter. Choose a promising bounty to participate in, otherwise you could do nothing when misfortune happens.

I used to participate in campaigns with the hope of making money. But I do not understand why the articles are destroyed, even delete my high-class nick anymore. Feeling like I was cheated and not wanting to participate in the next campaign.

Before joining we have to find whether the campaign is worth able to pay bounty participants. Some owner is very jealous about giving a portion in there what they mentioned at the time ICO. They kept on delaying the payments after the conclusion of ICO, so please be patient and join in the best campaign which pays on time.

I was rejected by rivetz. First jamalazzez disappear and then they replace bounty manager wiyh irfan_pak. And they update spread sheet..when i see my name. I am rejected by them. I dont know why...after i read that i was rejected ( rejected after i post 50 post ) i immadietly change my signature. And today i see the reason i havee been rejected is removing signature. And there is writen on top of spread sheet that low quality post can be qualified..i dont know what they are thinking..i hate that ico..

And now you are saying you got scammed by them? I believe the reason why you were rejected because you only make posts in local board. Then, irfan reject you for low quality post, which you thought it's already permanent and you decided to change the signature which resulted a rejection because removing signature.
Who's fault on here? You weren't patient to wait next announcement from irfan and changed the signature as soon as you saw your name rejected because low quality post which actually only temporary

Campaign manager doesnt really have the power to pay-up participants since hes just relying also to the devs or owners of the coins.As a manager hes just managing off the campaign without the relation regarding on the payouts later on.This is why this thing isnt really a problem arised by managers but its is only on the project itself.

This is one of the risk in joining ICO bounty campaign. It is hard to tell if the project is real or just going to be a scam. Scammers are getting better in doing their craft. They can do good whitepaper, websites and everything needed to look like a legit project.

just be careful. read their paper, check their team information. see news say about project. join a campaign is not just waste your time. it's your trust. people see your opinion and join ICO. if the ICO scam. that will make everybody dont believe you again when say someone invest

you can't do anything if the bounty campaign you've joined in turn to be a scam. and also have a chance that you will receive a red trust because of promoting scam token. so be cautious
