Cheating in bounty programs

[chenjkai]

They are cheating because of the reason you have said. They are offering new rules that will say something different, or they even can low down the price. Or, they are afraid of that someone is cheating on them.

Do you think that some bounty programs cheat because they do not want to pay bounty hunters by bringing out things to do at they end of bounty campaign? Share your thought or experience.

if I think it's a natural thing because they have tried as much as possible to achieve it, but concept of the team may not attract the attention of investors so that investors do not join and the bounty was not paid because the project is less demanded

I dont want to tell the name of campaign now, but one ico in which i participated in bounty start to tell that most of posts and reposts of participants are low quality etc. But stakes were given, why they gave stakes for low quality work? As i see they just dont want to pay. I feel the smell of cheating, but we'll see.

Yes it will happen sometimes but most bounty programs paid their applicants according to their effort and honesty in working during the campaign period.

[TropicalDog17]

That is a tough question, because it is stupid to lie to people if you want to get your tokens into masses. Their reputation will be affected so badly, or that is just scam.

There are many projects that have a bounty scam! Under their rules we wear their heads and signatures. Hard work for them, but they always delay the bounty of the table update, and then in the absence of notice, change the rules, only after bargaining with them will recalculate. For this kind of behavior, we can only stop to negotiate this step, there is no other way! I hope someone can come up with a post on BBS to report on these fraudulent projects.

    I've already experienced joining bounty program and at the end they didn't pay the bounty participants. Another one at the beginning of the campaign the rules are clear that's why many hunters participated but after bounty program finished they changed the rules when they start distributing the tokens for their members. Members not received the amount stated at the beginning of the program. I think we can't avoid those things to happen because the program manager is the one who rule over it. We are lucky if the manager in the program we joined is good,honest,responsible and not cheating the budget for the participants.

If something like that happens to you then open a scam accusation against the developers of that coin, if they promise to give you a certain amount of tokens under certain rules and then at the end they change everything you have some grounds to open an accusation against them, after all that is very unethical because they got all of that advertising and now they do not want to pay.

There are some bounties who are only after the ICO money they gather and just focus on the investors investing on their project, and if they think it is not enough they then will not pay the people helping them spread the ICO which are the bounty hunters joining campaigns. And this had happened a lot of times already or sometimes they just disappear and never hear anything from them again.

[faza13]

Actually sometimes I think about this.
Like the bounty managers that ask KYC, sometimes they ask. Passport for the KYC,  and how if we don't have passport??
Or sometimes I think,  How if the bounty manager cut the pay? How do we know??  Like an issue that I've heard about a bounty campaign, The developer team told to the bounty participant, that they provide 12% of total token sold, while the BM says only 5% have provided.
But,  what can we do  

[ValorouS]

Yeah we encounter sometimes this kind of ICO or Camp manager that are cheating or not paying the respective stake or tokens into the participants. If they really dont pay or give you the worth of your work you can submit a scam accusations to the team and manager in this very forum so the admins and moderator see what will do in this kind of situations

[sagor0707]

I did not get anything like that. But need time to get the bounty rewards. After 1-2 months of ending a Bounty program, the rewards will be given. But who does not? After the ICO and they scam, Normally  they will not give  you rewards. Hope you got your answer

 We all know that there is a wide margin of uncertainty in everything that refers to ICOs, and there is no written contract that guarantees us any rights with respect to the bounty programs. In fact, there are several possibilities against us:

 1) The ICO is a success, but do not grant the tokens to the bounty hunters.

2) The ICO fails and grant tokens without any value.

3) The ICO is successful, but change the rules of the bounty program, which complicates that the majority of the participants receive the promised tokens.

And in these three cases I have already had bad experiences.

I do not think so, if they do not reach softcap yes reasonable if we are not in pay. because even if we are paid then the ico team will not issue its tokens in the market so it will be futile also though we are paid with their tokens if ico failed.

As the Most ICOs are very bad projects, a lot of them are scams and some are interesting. You can't decide, unless the project owners issue the bounty tokens among the bounty participants. It's completely owner choice, just travel out the forum, you get more ideas how bounty hunters were cheated even a project reached their max cap.

[Irvanremok]

yes you are right i also think like that many bounty programs do not give gifts to the bounty hunter. this may be a fraudulent gift of his project and the creator is not responsible for the project he is making. this is very annoying just a waste of time only. I hope this kind of gift is no longer in the forum so the prize hunter is not disappointed with your project.

[Wahanna]

Mostly are cheating for the bounty program. They not pay you after the bounty campaign. The bounty manager is one of the responsible for this matter, they didn't pay the participants

[miningguru]

It is because we are choosing the fake ICO, that's why many people are suggesting the before joining in any ICO bounty better we have to research the team and total supply they allocated to the bounty. We have to check whether who is managing the marketing community rewards because sometimes it is based on the Manager also.

[nmthu2209]

Good bounty programs are required to publish all requests and rules before joining. Many bounty requests are KYC but after the end of the program so after finishing those non-KYC will not get token. And I do not know what they would do with those tokens.

[target]

 There are lots of bounty programs I have seen not paying the hunters or reducing the amount of tokens from the bounty pool. They were successful in ICO but not really an achiever like got the hard cap. The team shouldn't be afraid of the token being dumped after all they can buy back the cheaper tokens and thats where those funds they got would be useful.

Yes, you are right most of the companies are doing the same thing because some bounty manager is not responsible for payments because they will do the work on the basis of an agreement till the crowdsale end. Most of the questions we have to divert to team members only regarding bounties.
