FAKE ICOs Bounties. What to do?

[Crypto_Wanderer]

I'm always to experience to the fake bounties and sometimes they don't pay us.
So if we participate to those ICO's bounties we make sure that this will be going pay us until they end of ICO.

Do not worry, it is only your time what you offer, not your money, so calm down, you can't earn from every bounty campaign .
I do bounties and investing bounty money back to the ICOs, with this method you have to do better researches but you will receive more money.

Look for a good bounty managers and do some background check about the bounty campaigns. Check their products, founder backgound, team developer etc.

if you can know, what bounty project are you following? try we can see from the number of investors or roadmap it, from there seen if ico is able to achieve the target, ico can be believed and not scam, most ico scam that ico who did not reach the target

If you do investigate and you'll find that it is scam you can report it from DT members here to warning participants and investors who wanted to invest in that scam project so the users here know about that issues and users know that project have malicious intention.

There are a lot of fake ICO bounties, so research well before joining bounties. Because, if you participate in fake bounties, you would waste much valuable time and effort. You wouldn't get anything by participating in these bounties. I have also participated a few of them and have got no coins. It is very painful, as after doing a lot of hard work and effort, you get nothing.

I met 3 times with the fake award campaign  I'm starting to do it as a hobby now. I have not won anything yet. I can not even talk about ico ^^

As practice shows, a good manager doesn't guarantee that the project willn't be fraudulent. I myself look at many things when choosing a bounty company and and despite a careful choice, there are some that deceive investors and hunters

I am a newbie just trying to grow on this platform. Within a week of participating in altcoin bounties, 2 bounties I participated in have been reported as Scammers. I get a lot of reads on my articles and Social media pages. I cannot keep encouraging people to invest in these altcoins if they would eventually get scammed. How can new bounty hunters like myself differentiate between a genuine bounty and scammers bounty?

do some investigation on your own, you can specify if a campaign is scam or not, just look on their website, all of the information given there can be use to identify the campaign if it is good or not.

Not much you can do about the fake bounties that already have burned you except mention it in the thread and bring exposure to the scammers.  After that, learn from your mistakes and do proper and thorough research on the team and project to prevent things like this from happening again in the future.  Luckily with bounties, only your time has been wasted rather than monetary investment.

That part of the risk. Hope the crypto world not floods by fake IVO. So people can put more trust.

This requires experience. Many projects, which at first sight seem good, turn out to be a scam. Look at the idea of the project, evaluate the prospect of launching the finished product. To do this, you need to look at the project team and read the white paper.

It is very difficult to pick a genuine project from fake ones. What I would advice is that you done a thorough research about the bounty campaign manager. Check the number of bounty campaigns he has managed and check the success rate of those campaigns and make your final decision based on your own analysis of his work. I hope this helps.

[Tiger Junk]

Yes you do need to be careful of fake ICOs as they will not pay out. Do some research before choosing your bounty and make sure that you understand the rules of the bounty

Well that is normal that right now there are a lot of bounties is fake or scam, so my advice is always choose a bounty campaign that has a gopd white paper and also has a great manager like sylon and aerys2 and off course hss a great team.

[PrincessChe]

Nothing you can't to do. In this situation i leave coins (if it was payded) and forgot. As usual web cite closet, all contacts closed and you cant doing anything, only leve your time and norves. smiling and forgot)

[Jicokh79]

it is difficult to distinguish. we take the time without anything. when choosing it must accept and hope that it does not cheating. so on which to do if track it has problems should stop is the best way.

Don't be disappointed. It is your first steps, so no matter if you got involved in some scam. There are also good projects here, just keep going!

Most of the time, you can find them through the gtihub code, you can watch their quality of coding to judge whether this bounty thread is a scam, this is some of my experience, generally choose a good bounty manager is the best way.

I suggest that you should check whether the project’s code is open for scrutiny on github. If it's open, it might be a real bounty but if it appears to be cloned/copied from another token/app then it is likely to be a scam.
