The fact that you did not get paid does not make the project a scam. Some times, some projects ICO may end up unsuccessful or some regulations affecting them, but that is one of the risk that comes with bounty hunting, as you may end up doing a work without getting paid. Where there should be a complaint is when the ICO got successful and you did not get paid, or where the devs ran away with investors's fund and if that is not the case, it is not a scam.

I agree. I'm sure that most of the ICO developers don't plan to be a "scam" from the very beginning. They normally honestly believe in success of their project and it's for us to decide whether we should trust to what they believe. That's why it's important to check what other projects they have had in the past and if they were successful ones then probably a new project will be successful too.

Guys, faced with the project, took part in the bounty, the result of Scam. Took part in another bounty company, there ICO ended more than a month ago, and the payment has not yet been the bounty Manager is silent...Apparently this year's bad in respect of ICO projects.


We need to do enough research before we can make an investment.

I think you do not know much about the project. You are invited to join the bounty on scam projects. You need to know the analytics to avoid encountering those ICO scam projects

There are even those projects that have more attention, and they still go out like a match, you just need to have checked the developers and Manager bounty. Otherwise, if we haven't been able to test there actually any reason to participate in the bounty.

Scams are becoming more every day, as well as ICO and cryptocurrency is becoming more popular every day. There is a lot of fraud with ICO projects at the moment, so I stopped investing in ICO.

It normally happens so to you bounty hunters, don't be too excited when you've been part of a very generous bounty that promises to give a good allocation weekly. Don't rely with them that much, start to know better than what you are doing. Learn how to trade with the swings so you won't get scammed again by any of them. I feel sorry for you that are being scammed, it's either you find a very reliable manager or don't join bounty at all to avoid future the same incident.

I think investors should be skeptical of all ICOs. The key is to research them deeply. It's unfortunate that so many of them are scams. This is why regulators are coming hard on ICOs: a few bad apples spoil the bunch.

I am not skeptical like you and still believe in some projects that I think are right for investing, the potential of the project comes after I communicate directly with their team. I am used to being directly active to know potential projects, although not 100% accurate but the experience makes me stronger to criticize the projects I follow to see their seriousness.

What did you want? People realized that this can make good money, and fraudsters at all times enough. Collected on the sales money and took them to an unknown destination.

Just because of the fact that there are too many scams now and I do not participate in ICO projects.. I'm waiting for DAICO, but I can not find such projects. May be they are still not popular, but they are much more secure.

Yes, Some projects are scam but I advise that you or we bounty hunters should read their project before applying to their bounty campaign. Or maybe if the campaign is over we should just wait for our bounty to be distributed. We should join in their telegram group to know what are the updates in the bounty campaign, exchanges, when will it be distributed etc. Be careful in ICOs that you're applying for. To prevent waste of time.

ICO are getting a beating right now. You are lucky that you were invested in these projects in terms of doing bounties for them and  had not put in your hard earned money. There have been ICO's that have actually ran away with money, or even worse, tanked to 0, look at sp8de for example, my 3 eth invested in them is .2 eth now!

the number of scams in the market will decrease only when the crypto-currencies are somehow regulated by the law

As long as I joined crypto, the number of SCAM projects was almost the same approximately 10-15% of all ICOs. It even seems that last year this number was bigger then now, or maybe I meet less scam ICOs now. I just counted scams among bounty campaigns and I think that the number has decreased a bit. And I agree that the only way to fight with scams is to implement regulations, though I don't think it'll happen soon.
