Detecting scam projects is not as easy as reading a single page
. Doing some background checks about the team behind the project,their advisors and their partners may help detect an intention to scam people only if those mentioned in the project clearly states that they dont know anything about it. Most "scam" projects just try to mimic the original one that already exists.In doing so,they copy almost everything of the main project including their facebook and twitter pages which makes you think they are the original one. The only difference occurs when they want to give out a donation address. You will quite agree with me that, one might not have the time to go into these details before venturing into a project,and this is the main reason why some 'experienced' people sometimes even get scammed. Most projects are also referred to as 'scam' simply because their project collapsed along the line,in which case i wont describe that as one. So generally, those that try to mimic other projects are the main scammers. There are other criteria for detecting scams,but these are just the basics.
