It is hard to detect scammed bounty campaign..

[none of us]

it is still very hard for me to detect a scam. although i also use all the advice that i find here in the forum, it is still very difficult for me.

With the current situation, there are many ICOS appear but to find a campaign quality bounty is very difficult. However, it is important that you study all the details of the project before engaging in it and the ability of the product to market. All project information is true or false.

[rosmerius]

The more clever people in making sophisticated products and their marketing is also designed in such a way that it will be increasingly difficult to know. In my opinion, with the current market situation, the main benchmark is the team's ability to sell its products, the team's activeness in providing updates on information, background or team experience. If a project has not reached softcap, I don't think you need to follow it, it will be risky for you to get stuck in a failed project and then called a scam.

Yes, detect project scam is indeed very difficult because they are also experienced. But I am looking for projects with caution and checked on the website of the project. And I will be looking for projects with a token sales have reached a minimum sales target. Because if the target was already achieved of course we at the end of the project can get rewards.

[judyrob]

the scam is hard to know. reproduce the reference is sufficient way could help to know a scam and not. Moreover, if it can do a proper analysis will certainly also make this a better and also quite helpful. but the analysis also can sometimes miss the mark and will certainly be difficult because it's not a scam and even quite similar.

[erikoy]

as always even if there are too many guides on how to detect scam bounty projects still a project could be scam even after those lots of considerations. You can check the guides in the meta section on how to avoid scam project. Maybe it could help one to get a real one and able to receive good rewards in the near future. If you like to help you can post a thread for awareness on scam projects.

[Omtamvan]

There will be no one knows exactly about it. the scam will look when it is enough to run in some time because it will be visible indications that it is a scam. When early in its life it will certainly be the same as other existing projects and promising a lot of things as a gift that can be obtained.

Is bounty the scam or the ICO itself? I'd say do some research of the project itself ,try to know if the teams being the project are real ,even if the bounty is introduced by newbie doesn't mean its scam ,what matters is the project itself

[Litzki1990]

Move on! Don't repeat the same mistake then. actually it's very easy to be able to detect things like this. you just need to find a good source about the manager with the previous good works (which have been proven to pay) and usually their projects will be good

I agree that it is hard to determine which bounty campaign is really true and paying. It requires serious mistakes first before finally learning how to distinguish good campaigns from scam ones. But always learn from mistakes. Though harsh, this is the most effective teacher towards improving.

For me since the time i'm participate in the bounty campaign and they scam, Ill just think to my self that i need to move on and find a way on how to avoid to those scam bounty campaign and participate to those CM that have some good view.

It is really hard to detect scammed bounty campaign.  After completing all the requirements to be able to get accepted in a bounty campaign, spending much time to participate in forums and not to mention carrying their banners, completing all the tasks and reports then all of a sudden you will just find out that you have been scammed already.  luckily I am not the only one but to think all participants did the same efforts as well as you did.  But it is really happening, lesson learned and could be just charge it to experience and move on.  If we could only find out at early stage if we were in to scam or a legit bounty campaign.  Who would really know anyway?

That's why we all need some guarantees and rules. In addition, I believe that the spread of the process token can be embedded smart contracts, so fraudsters will not.

It's not that hard if you know what it looks like a responsible manager of the Remuneration and what its responsibilities will be easy to detect fraudulent projects.

[deepakg2m]

Some of the scam projects are very easy to spot. Unfortunately the scammers are improving and are more sophisticated now. Some of the scam projects are so good that is nearly impossible to detect.

 True. Now a days, hackers and scammers are getting more intelligent than us . They design such programs that spotting the faulty, scam and fraud projects is just impossible.

[nangiarushali]

Yes, ofcourse. The scammers will not leave a single sign from which their cruel intentions could be known. The differentiation between the scam and genuine projects is just impossible for the common people like us.

Do not be disappointed in this, there will always be scammers , I think you should choose a good bounty managers and then the risks will be minimal )

[thehulkk]

Yes it is difficult to spot a fraudulent campaign. I met so many campaigns so I had some experience for myself:
First check the bonus campaign manager, there are some reputable managers on this forum.
Second check their website, development team, check the media network site and finally pray.

Any bounty or anything related to Vitali Chebotarov must be avoided.

The Russian/Ukrainian bounty scammer uses multiple sock-puppets to flood thread to create fake hype or fake buzz just to try to scam investors by trying to entice them in to participating in their scam ICOs and pre-ICOs. One of those pre-sale ICO is taking place for 6 months between August 2018 to February 2019 then it will be followed by the ICO from February 2019 to August 2019.

These scammers want to have an ICO for a whole year to maximise their scam and vanish with your funds.

You are absolutely right, it is very hard to detect scam bounty campaigns these days . A good number of them are just waste of efforts and time.

[zcashplan]

Yes, this requires a very comprehensive knowledge of the observer, otherwise it is difficult to distinguish. Because most people can't identify the scam, the scammers are crazy. We should let the scammers go to hell.

Usually fraudulent ICO provide fake campaign for compensation. At the same time much easier to detect fraudulent ICO, so you have a manual on the detection of fraudulent awards.

[givary]

Yes, scam projects are indeed very difficult to detect, but attention must be paid to the team they have. Teams are usually active in updating information. And on social media like telegram it must be more active. If it's all inactive you have to look for another project. And you also have to do research before you decide to join the ICO.
