do you ever follow the work bounty signature program, social media campaign but ended a scam? then how can we know the project ended a scam or a professional? Give me more tips thank you
Detecting if the bounty campaign is a scam or not is quite difficult now a days because most of the time they are active during ICO so the tendecy for a bounty hunter to get interested might be high. Searching for high rated ICO might reduce the risk or join on the campaign of a well known bounty managers.

View their team profiles, token features, ANN threads, and their official website. in my opinion, the profile of the bounty/airdrop manager is crucial in choosing an airdrop program

My strategy is to look at:
1. The idea 2. Team and advisors 3. White Paper 4. ICObench rating 5. Social pages and site 6. Token Metrics and Prototype
But after all there is no 100% guarantee that it will be not a scam. But it is all you can do from your side so you need some luck also.

You missed the development team and LinkedIn profile to share here. You may consider including with in the team and advisors list but if the newbie has been came here to invest on ICO means he will not be know about it mate. Why I have asked you to check the LinkedIn profile, because they will be creating fake profile of the CEO and other people in the friendlist. If the legit person you will be able to find with the age about LinkedIn profile itself so there would not be any issue for investing ICO then.

Difficult to say ! You should note the following:
1. Staff review: Are they really talented people? Are they full time for this project? Have they got the product yet? Consider the mentors, the projects they contributed to succeed or not? Ratio ?
2. Their legal elements
3. Personally I do not like projects coming from Russia

If project already has product and some operational income - you can trust it much more. If project's representatives has access to big TV channels or newspapers with reputation - it's aslo a good sign. And of course in the beginning always try to estimate a quality of their website. In some cases you won't even need to use first two advices ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

It's pretty hard to distinguished fraudulent ICO from those legit because there are times that even a good platform with excellent team could lead to abandonment of the project hence a scam ICO, even bounty managers here too have experience with those scam companies. I suggest looking for a potential ICO you must also consider the country where it is situated as a strict regulation might compensate the risk of getting scammed.

The first thing is when you choose the ICO campaign, if you have right chosen=, the encounter with the scam project is almost impossible. A potential ICO project is when it has a good manager. Also, the campaign also needs a large number of members on Social, the index after each ICO sale Token are high. I advise you to refer to the ICO on the sharing groups as well as the ICO review sites.

In my opinion, the bounty project that does not have the scam potential has a solid team and a company that is well known to the public. A good project is usually an energy company, I will not doubt it again if the company is engaged in Energy. This project will definitely be a success and far from the word scam.

There are too many projects and I do not have time to analyze all of them, so I choose projects that the guys recommend on the icodrops website. Already from this list of projects I conduct my analysis of the team of developers and the idea of the project

You are absolutely right, guys! I missed that important point. LinkedId profiles must be checked if you are serious about the investing in the project. You should make sure that the team is not fake and it is important to check thiers' previous projects. Also the developers must have a good background within the blockchain technology.

it's a very difficult thing to do (for me personally) because there are so many ICOs coming this time with promising technology and a good site but it can not be a guarantee for the project is not a scam, but at least we can find a project that has a team who can be trusted and experienced.

Nowadays, theres a lot of scams and its really hard to detect which is legit and not. And eventhough we do on searching about the team behind the project, their social media, whitepaper and project, the truth is there is no 100% assurance that these bounties are not a scam. Mostly all Devs/teams of ico are active during ico but after the ico, they turned out to be silent or scams....But whatever the turn-out, we need to accept and goes on. After all, we dont invest cash fund so I just move on and accept the fact and try again another bounty.

It is quite difficult to say unequivocally whether the project will be worthwhile, the tighter at the current time, when some projects having a good idea and a strong team can not gain investment. First of all, look at the idea, whether there is already ready products, who conducts the company and you can use outside resources to assess the potential of the program.

I think it is very hard to guess the scam for it is not seems like a scam when currently running the campaign. For sure scam can notice when the ICO ended. That will be the time to show its true color.

I can’t tell you if a certain project is worth investing in or not and I won’t tell you what to look for in order to find profitable ICOs. No, I am simply going to show you the markings that scam projects often carry so that you can avoid wasting your hard earned Bitcoins on them. With that being said, even honest projects can be a complete failure, so make sure you know what you’re doing and remember to never invest more than what you can afford to lose. Scam projects will often make bold claims about their product even though said project offers nothing new or disruptive. It’s not likely that a certain blockchain platform or cryptocurrency will end poverty, fix global warming or replace the internet. This can also be truth for how they expect the community or markets to respond to the product. If someone claims their cryptocurrency will replace Bitcoin, get a disproportionate amount of users, or increase by 100x in the price charts, you can add that project to the scam list. If the project does have that potential, professional developers will never make such promises. They will let you know about the potential of their project and that’s it. No serious team will ever make a price prediction about their token or claim it can fix the world.
