Now at all points, which you described, it is possible to create imitation. Swindlers on the Internet become more cunning.

Many TOKEN and ICos are started to collect money from people and do scam they follow a lot of tactics to make it look real, I am pointing some important points to identify these and if you know any then share with users
-TEAM behind the project and their Expertise -Advisor of the Project -Team Social Presence -The idea and How possible that idea is to implement in the real world. -Number of Token published by Team. -Exchange in which that Token and coin is listed -Age of Coin and Token -The community behind that Project. -Public Review about that TOKEN or Coin in Different Platform

For example, the ledger or MEW said back and forth, security! 1 / Private key / json / 24 seed: use winrar, compression, set pass file compression, drop to drive, email. 2 / Log in to MEW using json. Do not enter passwords from keyboard, but use virtual keyboard / on screen keyboard. 3 / Spending money is million billion, unfortunately the virus and malware browser: kis / nis / bis + malwarebyte antimalware If you just want to balance, use etherscan.io or ethplorer.io. Limit login to MEW just to watch the token for fun 5 / 2FA; Use authy to save. set backup pass / login, bla bla bla ... Do not use SMS to receive 2fa

Look for the various team members on social media. If the team members are all people with Twitter, LinkedIN and Facebook profiles that are all brand new, you can bet it's a scam. You want to look for established developers that are already active on social media. If you can't find any information about the dev team on social media you need to avoid that ICO.

A good team and open source code, I think this is the fundamental way I judge whether the ICO project is a hoax. Most of the time, as long as the project is open source, it is not a scam. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Scammers are getting more cleaver these days so it's very difficult to spot out the scams before hand, but the obvious ones I have seen and will recommend staying away from are those projects that mention they will be listed on a large exchange such as Bittrex, Binance or Poloniex before the ICO starts. Unless they provide proof such as an endorsement from the CEO of the exchanges, it is usually a scam tactic to get investors to invest thinking the coin will be traded on the exchange after the ICO. Avoid these projects.

Yaa its topics concern right now becuase there are so many ico in the market but if you dont know about it well it might be risky. before joining or invest ico i do research about those compnay white paper, dev team , roadmaps and the product also. so my sugesttion for you do lots of research and then invest any ico if all the things remains good

Thank you for the wonderful strategy. I will try to use it, but it seems to me that all this can not give a 100% guarantee, but such caution, of course, can reduce the risks for investing. Therefore, caution never fails.

I want to Add more on this
Fake Appearance, Fake Information
The blockchain is 10 Year Old and many claims to be the part of it for more then 5 years, if that is the case then why they started working on TOKEN instead of there own blockchain.

These are just conditions that must be met when creating and developing ISO. In addition, you must understand that this idea can be at least someone you need.

What was posted gives a good idea of what to look for. The list contain reasonable inputs. However, What I would like to emphasize more is the possibility that some of these identities could be those that was just taken from the internet as a stolen info. Maybe we should check if they are really the person displayed on the picture. Stolen identities are common nowadays.

This is also what I need to learn. Newcomers like me are even less clear about how to identify fraudulent ICOs. I only know how to do more research.

which you say is enough to determine a good ICO or not but it seems the fraudsters will work harder to fool the victim so it's better to remain cautious, if I'm not mistaken I see there is a web that gives an overview of the ongoing ICO, KYC features for CEO and co-founder to prove the authenticity of the project, its web is https://icobench.com/for example you can see this.![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi66.tinypic.com%2F2elt737.jpg&t=665&c=2eWfT4WMu_r7vA)
