Most of the time it's hard to tell.
However, I will judge by the number of telegram groups, if the popularity of this project is high enough, I think it can be completed by ICO. Generally speaking, the projects that have been raised by ICO will pay you the relevant reward, so I seldom worry about this problem.

I just joined my 1st bounty signature and my criteria for choosing the bounty I join was I see a lot of good members promoting it and see lot's of high rank member choosing that bounty also.

but there are several ways that is
find info about the bounty and check its website as well as the background of the project. and see who the manager who manage it. because quite a lot of managers who have good reputation

Hi friend.
I joined a lot of bounty campaigns and I have some experiences. Hope it useful for you.

Check info of that project carefully:
Country, community, IP address, traffic website...
How many people join with you in that bounty...

You can use some website to check info of them.
I recommend to use alexa.com to check country, community, traffic ...

Have a nice day.

It is not so easy to tell if it is a scam or not, what you can do is doing some deep research, including reading the whitepaper carefully and background investigation to the dev team.

[iozver]

Pay attention to the product. Will it be interesting for the consumer or not? Examine the team and advisers. Very often, advisers meet in several companies. Study the white paper and the road map and draw conclusions. Then, on the basis of these conclusions, decide whether the project is worthwhile or not.

[nndep3m]

What you must do is read the whitepaper and see how professionally presented it is. Is the English clear? Are there common grammatical errors? The most important thing is whether you understand the problem that the project is solving. Make no mistake, it's easy to think that a project sounds too complex for you to "get it", but more often than not with a scam there will just be empty words that sound intelligent but are really meaningless. That is why you must get that "ah hah!" moment when you read the whitepaper, and realize.. "so that's the issue they're solving". After that, research the team, verify their LinkedIn is real (check to see if they really do hold a position in the project according to their profile). Lastly, join Slack/Discord/Telegram and see if you can chat to the team to also verify they're real. All of these steps will help to mitigate the chance of joining a fraudulent bounty campaign.

Here one hundred percent you will not guess. I use the service that sends me a selection every Monday. So far, never failed. All projects were honest. But to bounty hunters everywhere are treated like assholes.

Even though the topics/articles which I posted below are not directly related to your questions, I believe it is a good resources or discussion for you.

Regarding your questions, there is something to consider before you join a bounty from my experience, including but not limited to:
- The manager's reputation. If a manager is a newbie or something like that, proceed with extreme caution, unless it is clear that those newbies account are an official account from the team.
- Funds, whether it is escrowed or not. Escrowed bounty is the one you should look, however, there is not many out there.
- The team. Avoid bounty of a project that doesn't have a clear and if possible a great background on cryptos and etc. However, some good coins out there has an anonymous team, so this rule can't be applied to every condition.

Knowing the right bounty project to do is not very easy. There are a lot of things you have to check before you put in your hard earned money. First you have to know who is the owner or developer of the project. The question is are they real persons or fake persons. Do they have the field knowledge to carry out the project. Also you have to found out whether the project have a source code by going to https:// Github .com. What is the marketing strategies of this project. A whole lots of things to look at.

Look for the whitepaper and the background of the project,check developers and the founder,product and roadmap.

[Ebenezar64]

As many are saying. Do research: read whitepaper, look at development progress and existing community support. Try to understand what the project is about and that you believe in it

You are right I have been victimized two times already it's a waste of time and effort for 5 months so it's very important to do a lot of research if the ico is indeed legit, check up the team behind it and the roadmap, it's better if a reputable company will headline the ico.

[tahmad]

You can check the whitepaper, roadmap, community, communication between team and participants, and how much the participant join to project.
A good communication between team and participants will make the project growth more good.

[Yudhisthir]

I think you are referring to longer period social and signature campaign which are not escrowed.
In my personal experience, Joining a campaign under a reputed or professional bounty manager or under a contributed member (copper member and higher) has lower chance of being left without a pay.

[IloveDigibyte]

You never know for sure. But studying the project, reading the whitepaper, their site and the road map is always helpful. Check the team members and see any previous work they have done. Sometimes you can tell it’s a bad project just watching the ANN thread. Just read it careful and choose wisely.

Of course, we do not know that this project may not be legal, but on the other hand, there is always a risk, as well as the acquisition of a koin on the stock exchange, because people do not always have time to get acquainted with a coin or a token, more accurately with its legal nature, people are in a hurry to make a purchase based on the news about this project.

[asayoyaasa]

Me my self will look to the manager who manage the campaign it self, cause its very rare a legendary or hero member want to manage a scam project they must be do some research first before take that job as a bounty manager. After that ill look at the project, if i like it i join it. The rest is same like you mark an ICO as a scam or not, you see the team behind it the company etc.

Before I'm going bloody research to know if the project is legitimate or not but now I just find it in choosing the good bounty campaign managers because good ICOs and coin company have no funds issue or problems therefore if they want their ICO to be promoted by good  members then they could hire experienced and good bounty campaign managers like Sylon, Needmoney, Arteezy, Yahoo and more.
