It's true, it's very difficult now to really well and thoroughly analyze projects, because now it's hard to understand what kind of team the project is working on and how correctly it treats this team.

Because scam bounty campaigns are now made very sophisticated. It's not possible to recognize it by conventional methods of evaluation because everything is created very legit. We can only know the scam
bounty campaign when they finish the ICO and do not update to the bounty program or the project disappears like a drop of water in the desert.

That's really true because there are bounty campaign who is/are managed well by a scammer or group of scammers to the extent that you will get fooled even if you already do a thorough investigation before you participate in the bounty campaign. We know how risky investing on ICO and the risk is tripled as this ICO may be managed by group of scammers.

yes ... indeed it is now very difficult to find a quality bounty project ...
the number of scam projects that emerged also made an impact on the new but good bounty project. and the effect that was most felt was that the project's objectives were not achieved.

Is it possible for the project scam perpetrator to have his own community between the perpetrators of the scam so that it is difficult to detect it?

Now it is very hard to identify scam because people that make this projects disguise themselves very well. You can check ICO projects in some sources that evaluate ICO.

It is possible increasing more difficult to detect these days as scammers are getting better at their game. But the fundamentals have not changed significantly, if it is too good to be true, it is probably not true. Don't fall for vain promises

I recommend to stick to famous bounty managers like amazix, as they tend to choose the best projects to work with, the thing is that the campaigns may get overcrowded at some point.

Yes I agree with this. Three times already were the campaigns I was joining were all scam. At the earlier stage of the campaign the admins are actively responding our queries and questions about the campaign. As we go along they seldom answers you because they were busy and once it has ended, admin no more.

it is very difficult to know the scam in the bounty campaign, even though you have participated until the campaign is over, you will not know the bounty is a scam or not.

It is incredibly difficult to detect scam among bounty, most of info is secured far away from bounty hunters so the only thing left is just to believe managers and your intuition.

You are correct, even when the ico campaign is legit, we just got to make sure that the bounty manager is also a legit one. In order not to waste our time doing bounty campaign into a scam bounty, we need to spend some time making research first.

indeed it is very difficult to detect or determine which ico is not going to be a scam and where is ico going to be successful, even now there are some ico that look good and the sale of tokens is almost hardcap can be a scam and ico which seems less attractive and less good become a successful ico.

It's really hard to choose a good bounty and Airdrop campaign, because most of these campaign are scam.
So, we need to do some research about that project.
I suggest you to join some Airdrop like Staker Token Airdrop, its a very promising hope you like it.

When you are able to join or invest in a program that you are scamming, I suspect that detecting bounty activities or programs can be painful, too.

In my experience, I only attended the bounty event with a reliable bounty manager. I choose a reward manager with previous experience in handling successful projects.

Actually it is hard to identify if a certain bounty is a scam or not, they will make it obvious that their bounty is just a scam. It is like a thief, you won't see them coming at night stealing things at your house, you'll just know it when you look something in your house and you can't find it in the place where you hide it, same goes to a scam bounty campaign, you'll just know it after their ICO.

Mostly of the bounty campaign that I've encountered that are scams are those who have a smaller community, always extending the due date of their payment, and tokens are in a exchange.

Yeah ! It is really hard to detect scammed bounty campaigns because at first, we thought that the bounties we had participated are legit. In terms of updating and managing their bounty programs they are always active that's why we can't say that it is a scam until we know the truth at the end. But it is better to do bounties than doing anything that is not crypto-related activities. It is still worth it when we got paid by the bounty.
