I have never been fooled, if the maximal fraud bounty project I have never been deceived by bounty chairman, because I follow bounty also recently, so I have not been able to give a wise comment.

There are a lot of scammers even in telegram that setup fake accounts copying the identities of admin of telegram channels in which  participated. All are trying to get me to send ETH or BTC as part of KYC.
Anything or any one that asks for such is nothing but scum of a scam.

I almost got scammed on twitter by a fake account. Scammers are setting up fake accounts pretending to be other people/ICO's/Tokens. It's very tricky if you are not paying attention. Make sure you check spelling on all names to be correct. Be careful who you give your info to. Even if it's just your email address. Scammers will not stop scamming so watch out and pay close attention to what you are signing up for. Good Luck everyone and be safe!
Thank you for your suggestions to all of us. Everything you say is true from the experience that has happened to you. If nothing like this happens we will not move to be a better person. I am also almost cheated but not cheated here but cheated in the outer environment that many bad people and irresponsible. Now I am a very cautious person.

We all know that there are too many scammers nowadays and though we are aware of them, we still get into troubles sometimes because of this dishonest people. I always do careful research before joining the campaigne or investing in project, but once I joined signature campaigne and worked for four weeks there. The ICO looked like a legit project, but nevertheless it appeared to be scam. So, despite all precautions you cannot fully protect yourself from scammers.

the warning should be heeded. recently I also found the same thing, but on a bounty of signature. This is either cheating or anything but certainly for any account that has that in joining the campaign I recommend to always check your account on the spreadsheet is also to anticipate unwanted things.

That is quite terrible! It seems that most of the time you didn’t get anything for the work you’ve done.
I on the other hand have been scammed when the a bounty campaign, like yours, didn’t get paid for the work I’ve done. Anyway I have moved on, and everything’s well and good now.
Need to be careful after that one

 Scammers are everywhere especially nowadays there are many ICO and projects are in the internet. So beware in joining in any campaign or airdrops. some of them want your accounts and eth address. Its hard to get not paid in campaign. So  you need to check their project if it will not scammed or it is a good project. always check their team if you engage in any campaign. Scammers will not exist if people dont get scammed so be aware to the scammers.

I haven't been scammed yet, probably because I learn the project, its team and whitepaper carefully before invest. But no one is immune from scam.

I almost got scammed by a localcoinswap ICO . When I joined the telegram I wanted to join the private sale and benefit from the exclusive bonus. I got pm from one scammer who has disguise himself as a team member and wanted to offer me a sale. My instinct told me to contact the admin first before given him my money and it turn out he is a scammer.

I've never experienced being scammed since then. I don't know if I'm just that too secured to my accounts or I'm just that lucky enough that I didn't get caught attention of the scammers so that they didn't make me as their victim. Though I'm also been aware of avoiding those scammers because I'm afraid to be scam.

yes. I was a first timer back then and started from doing faucets, I have discovered this mining site and was able to invest on it (luckily I didnt invest a large amount) As of today faucets has been the favorite of scammers specially in using other beginners' innocence. Always be careful.

I am thankful that I never been scammed or even almost,maybe because I seldom negotiate with other people here in crypto and usually I joined bounties that i knew it is valid or legal. We should always be cautious especially giving our private keys and password.
