Perhaps we should pay attention to such things as public video about the project, where the developers of the project are talking about their project, where people show their office and those people who work there. I think that this will be correct.
There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

The key is looking at the team. An ICO must have clear a public team members that show their real faces and have a verifiable identity, if not ... suspect.

This is so true! If an ICO does not have a public face for their team or project that is a huge red flag. When has anyone asked for money, but hide who they were, that wasn't up to something fishy.

You really cant,doing researching wont save your ass from the professional scammers out there, these projects will be good to be true or it has quality contents and almost perfect so you wont be able to notice it until they have disappeared into thin air stealing millions of dollars in hand.That is why doing researching wont give you immunity with these scammers because it will only lessen the chance of you getting involved with these scam projects.

How do you know if it is a scam? Because I have encountered a bounty that let me finish all the translations first and didn't respond to me after I have passed it. I hope bounties will not be like this anymore because they demand and we did our part but they didn't do theirs. I hope you could answer my question.
in my opinion before you do the signature there are some things you should look for, so as not to be fooled by a project. things you need to consider are as follows:
1. see first the website is convincing or not.
2. see the track record of the manager's team.
3. always update on telegram
4. always update the stake.
it's probably my opinion about the procedure of avoiding a scam.

One not unimportant criterion in choosing an ICO is the choice of a team that has made and promotes its project. Look at the previous work, if there are any, known or not. What is their experience in crypto. Of course there are also projects with a young team that are becoming successful, but even

Actually its not easy to find out a bounty is a scam or not. The easiest thing to find out maybe look at the team and their product. If they don't have any product keep looking at the team. If they have reputation I think it is not scam.

is there a team behind it that you can research ? you need to do your research first on the team or their partners if that company is legit. Once you acquired the skill on how to determine wether an ico is scam or not. It will be easy.

it is hard to detect which one is scam or not, Just do bounty wherein the developer or manager is not anonymous.. choose those bounties wherein there were faces of them attached so that whatever happened you will have ways to find them.

To spend additional forces and means to find the crooks. Not a good time. It is better not to think about revenge, before joining. And about the quality of ICO before joining.

indeed many new projects offered at this time but we must need precision and smart in analyzing the project read the white paper, road map and support team

I was dealing with scam ICO’s for two times, I think it is very hard to tell if it is a scam of not if the scammers are well prepared, I think you have just wait and try to find some accusations in scam thru google, but if you are doing translations on the start of campaign you have just to hold on to your intuition.

To tell the truth I don't have idea if one of the bounty is scam. But better for you to search and research that is the most important to know if the project is scam or not. You must read the whitepaper, know the developers, the project team members. Check all the information about the bounty you want to join just to aware you of scam...

It is hharf to tell if a bounty is a scam or not because i have been scam for a lot os times and even if that things are happened to be a lot of times still i cannot knew if the ico that i will join into is gonna be a scam again. Because there are a campaign that are suspicious because there are a few designs so you are thinking that it is a scam or not and there are a lot of designs but a scam. So i just rely of their popularity in the telegram because if a lot.of people are involved for me it is much safer.

In my opinion, the best way to identifying the scams is if you take a look at the team of the project. If it is a scam, you probably won't find much information about the founders. If you search a little bit further about the team then you will see what they do. To realize if you trust the team that is on you  Smiley. Participating in a bounty or investing in an ICO is not only about the idea, it's about who is developing it.

It is very difficult to predict the scam Bounty. Since most of them have different strategies, whitepapers are offered very sweet to attract investors. And then the allocation is too big, this is likely to bounty a scam.

Sorry they wasted your time!
For me the process of deciding to join a bounty or not is the same as when I am deciding if I will invest into a project or not. I read about the project, product and team and try to find out about them on ICO review sites. If I like the project and bounty allocation, I will join.

These are few steps that help me to define where to join a bounty of not:
 - How many members are in telegram group. If less than 2000 I skip it.
- Total project's hardcap and bounty allocations. The best bounty proportion is 1-2% of total cap. If they offer more than it looks suspicious. If less, it usually doesn't worth trying.
- ICO ratings on different sites and reviews. If a project is listed in bloggers spreadsheets than I would definitely join it.
