Really, now here are a lot of scam projects. Of the last i can highlight RoscaCoin, Microstack, Impressio... But you cant handle this, because  it is only a some kind of "business risk". I can only advise you to choose bounty campaigns more carefully, and fully inspect ICO before taking part in bounty.

Many people get angry because there is a merit system which makes it difficult for us to up rank or because of rising bitcoin prices that make everyone want to earn money with dirty (greedy)

According to you?
So make a lesson so as not to repeat for other times, scammers can not be avoided anymore because they think very profitable but in a cunning way, therefore it is necessary to know and analyze in depth to ensure the existence of the actual ICO.
You look complaining about this situation, first you complain about the merit system and second you complain about the scammer, not easily earn the income you want, then try to play the brain so as not to miss far from successful people.

every day a new ico comes out of the market, which is fake which is hard to tell which is the real one. Besides, many projects have to delay bounty payments because the market is bad

I don't see any illogical with merit system. It's working very good for rank hierarchy in the forum. If you just bounty hunter, your work is like, share and retweet, you don't have any knowledge with cryptocurrency, and you want to up rank? It sound very funny.

The scammers sees ico as a great opportunity for scamming investors in the cryprocurrency world. They come up with a type of bounty with a very attractive roedmap and a well formulated white paper.  They scam investors and go with their investment without giving them the coins they promise to lay them for investing in their project.  
But nowadays, some ico decide to scam their bounty hunters without any reasons which is unfair. They n
Don't pay bounty participants for the work done for promoting their project with their social media.

I think that this might be a part of the reason from which this problem will flow off. But if people would be more sincere and honest, we will have less scam.

Bounty scams are not related to the policy in this forum. It is usual to have scam projects here because this is a portal of income and we all know that the greediness of the people leads them to fool other also.
If all projects here are just genuine, though the competition becomes difficult, atleasy you have a chance to make money even you are a junior member.
By the way, energzine is also a scam project.  Check it out in icoethics. You must remove your signature also and find another bounty.

The levels in bitcoin talk are only usable for the signature campaigns , for the rest of the campaigns the number of your followers is important. For signature to have higher level means to write better content , that everybody would read so the signature giver would love this more of course so its totally fair Wink

More scam icos is definitely going to lead to more scam bounties. So as a bounty hunter, one has to be careful and do some good research before partaking in them so you don't spend months wasting your time promoting scam projects.

Not a scam bounty but the ICOs are already intending to scam from the very beginning the ICOs were made. The team of ICOs are fake and have already planned it. If we want to know about good ICOs maybe we should see the rating of ICOs in some famous web and look for whether the ICOs have bounty or not.

The title is asking about why there's more of bounty scam.

And when I have read what you're going to ask, why are you whining with the merit system? you can directly ask the question that correlates with the title.

Simple logic

There are more bounty scam because there are more fake icos

It’s all easy and does not require hard thinking

While it is true that there are so many scams going on, we need also to be very vigilant on this. If you see something then say something, report that to the proper persons so that actions against those scammers will be taken.

Delaying the bounty rewards for months should also be termed as scam because bounty participants promote the project and help it to raise funds so i believe that they should be paid first for their work and effort holding their reward is unethical and against the labor laws.

I agree, especially when the ICO was successful and collected millions than the people who supported the campaign were part of the success. But then you have projects like Thrive or Bridge that are not even able to spend money for listing on exchanges...

Because some of them are greedy and want to make a profit without having to pay a fee then therefore they make fake ICO and for us who are in this forum to be careful when investing in ICO. Make sure that they are genuine or fake.

when there is merit, we will make a quality post, then there will be no spam post, I think bitcointalk policy is very precise, but there are still shortcomings

The increase in bounty scams has nothing to do with the Merit system introduced on this forum to tackle/discourage spammers.
Bounty/ICOs scam is the easiest way of extorting money from crypto investors presently hence the increase.
Bounty hunters should be careful in choosing projects to advertise so as to discourage these vicious scammers operations.

I agree with you. We must now be more careful again. Many of those who play dirty by promising projects that offer great benefits, turned out to be a scam after arriving mid-way.

There are more bounty scams because they find bounty as best source of income in crypto. Scammers are those people who wants to get rich easily without exerting so much effort and resources. Other scammers just want to ruin the image of crypto and are paid. Pity for them, cause these people don't reach success because they are not contented of the things they have. And I really believe that those who are doing good and persevere with what they are doing are rewarded but those who lure and trick others are punished. Let's be more careful and vigilant to avoid scam. Say no to scammers.

Your thread title and your OP don't match? But regardless, I think that the number of scam projects is roughly the same as it was 6 months ago in terms of ratio, but now we also have to contend with the fact that a large fraction of ICOs are doomed to fail. There is simply not as much money in the market as there was last year due to the price crunch. If an ICO fails, the bounty doesn't get paid, so you stand the chance of being either scammed, or backing a crap project that fails to generate its tokens at all.
