Yes, I've been scammed by some airdrops. And one was 1katoshi site. Which you can earn free Satoshi and they didn't give my 60k satoshi earnings. Please stay away with that site it is scam.

I am also the same as you experience, I often get a scam project. I also often get projects from scam airdrop so I stop following the airdrop project.
without joining the airdrop I still earn money from bounty campaign, so I think airdrop removed from this forum is also not a problem.

I am on the forum for two years already and I was scammed here by several signature campaigns, which didn't pay. With Bitcoin payments there wasn't a problem, but payments in tokens or other coins came on my wallet not every time, to say more, only two times from 5-6.

I wish I wont suffer the same fate as you. It's really sad to waste your time and effort to promote such projects without pay. Though, i'm just on my second campaign and I hope it will be successful and pays us when it ends.

Can you share this experience?

If you say yes, what the project was it? Why did you believe in this project?



Actually I don't experience scam because there's a friend that guide me so that I can explore without scam. Almost of the users here have been scammed they all say because of airdrops. There's a user here that been scammed on satoshi and they didn't give the 60k of the user so they guide us or tell us to stay away on that site.

I think I am fortunate enough because I've never been scammed. It's a good thing because if ever it will happen to me, I maybe don't know what to do..

Fortunately for me, I haven't been scammed. There are two reasons that I think of. First, is because I am still a newbie who doesn't have that much of a bitcoin. Second, I don't have bitcoin investment that may've been scammed. Since I am just a student, I don't have a source of money that I can invest. So currently, I am joining campaigns to earn some bitcoins.

Same here. I have not been scammed since I am a newbie in this community. It is also my first time to join in a campaign and it is not finish yet and I believe it is not a scammed simply because the project is great and the campaign manager is trustworthy. I am confident that I will be paid for my effort on this campaign, because surely the campaign will be a success.

So far I didn't experienced to be scammed which I did is to secure all my credentials in my safe place. Also as I observed here in the cyberworld, scammers are rampant in their bad doings which they do their best to scammed those people who doing their job seriously. Hopefully it will never happen to me because in some point there is still possibility to be scammed even how secure our credentials. All we need to do is to stay observant and attentive since we work here to earn and those scammers are waiting a right timing to have a victim.

Scammers are everywhere,some ICO campaign to sell their coin and after which  the investors are lift with no update of what they have bought and sadly enough you can not trace them because all information on social media and website will be deleted.

Fortunately I haven't been scammed ever since then. And it's just sad to hear stories like that when people get scammed by those who use the name of bitcoin for scamming. I've heard stories about that. That's why let's always be careful. Study well, invest smart so less people could be victimized by these scammers.

Can you share this experience?

If you say yes, what the project was it? Why did you believe in this project?

Yes in this website forums there is lots of scam, for example scam project like i joined bounty campaign few months ago because im not actually into it that time i have no idea that project is a scammed and i waste my time by joining that project its probably 6 weeks are wasted and never received any payment from them and those participant are complaining that they did not also received payments from that project. the main reason why we did not get paid because the ico failed so the project ended up as scammed.

from the day i joined here at our forum, I didn't experience yet this scam, because I didn't want to join in bounty and airdrops at that time, I only participating in Services Sections that pays only bitcoin every week, and now I decided to start joining/participate in bounty and airdrop to earn more tokens/coins. I just started 2nd week of January with this signature I have, hoping not to got scammed because I don't know the feeling of being scammed at first time doing things in a long run campaign.

Yes, I was! Before it was in some ponzi scheme, I put an investment then they run. Then here, some bounty after it's done, I haven't heard any updates and some changes the rule in time of the distribution. Effort and time were really wasted though there are still a lot of good bounty.
