Over the time a lot of projects/ ICOs were proved SCAM and yes there are always high possibilities of an ICO being a SCAM.
There is no fixed timeline that during bear market more ICOs or SCAM or during Bull Market, this particularly depends upon project to project. Not all ICOs are scam, just because some ICO are not giving an expected return on your investment does not necessarily means that it was a scam. The market conditions are much more effective on the price.
On the other hand, an ICO with no proper whitepaper, or a unknown team or showing fake partnerships etc have high chances of being scam, thats one of the main reason you should always do research on the authenticity of team and partnerships before investing in ICO.
