First of all avoid airdrops in these days most of the airdrops giving us worthless token or never pay us so we are wasting our time with them.So find some good bounty and participate there you will get some decent earnings for your hardwork.
And to avoid these kind of prolems we better keep separate MEW account for airdrops rewards so incase if we get robbed our valuable tokens will safe in our primary account.

Mostly email like that is 100% scam, input our private key? Lmao it's a joke there, don't ever input your private key there because it's 100% pure scam. I also received that email about airdrop things, email like that usually are spam and scam. Never trust that shit.

Indeed, there are so many scam projects right now and we have to be vigilant and secure our investments. From Bounties to Airdrops, you just can't trust directly because some are just scams so just a piece of advice to have background check of a certain project before joining gor us to be safe. Good luck!

Today i received an email
"The Anatomia Token distribution is now live for all verified users. So far, we have officially distributed tokens to over 10,000 verified users.
If you haven't received your 10,000 ATOM tokens, complete your KYC verification process now to claim your tokens.
Complete KYC
Please note that the KYC verification process will be discontinued in 5 days. Exchange listings are currently being scheduled by our team to make sure ATOM gets listed in mid-July.
Best regards, Anatomia Team."
If you click the link , a form will open. There you will find a link to sign message with myetherwallet. This link is not real myetherwallet. ie it is myetherwàllėt CAREFULLY see the dots in characters.
It is a SCAM. Be careful before you enter your private key in any website.

Airdrops are not just airdrops now a days as they do ask to join telegram/twitter and the registering to their site or submitting an email or white-listing email or anything similar to that must be done in order to qualify for airdrops. In my opinion an airdrop should be performed just by submitting their addy or ERC-20 enabled ETH addy in the case of token's airdrop.
When people start ignoring multi-procedure involved airdrops, then devs will come down with those complications. When airdrops are just a simple step procedure then we never need to worry on their scam or not. Because we may lose just our 2 minutes in most of the case and nothing more.

I’m aware of this since the day I started joining airdrops as many person are using my public email address in a potential investors list.
First sign that this email isn’t good for you and may contend harmful links then look at the sender.
Second your instincts usually do the trick, you can feel danger and don’t ignore it.
Last you must do is open it, report as spam or delete it. That’s what I been doing for a year now.

This one will gonna be helpful to everyone here. Interested in Cryptocurrency? Beware of these scams.
There's a lot of fake websites being made by the scammers. Even blockchain.com have a same fake site which is blöckchäin.com as what I have seen while browsing the net. 2. Watch out for fake websites.Look for the "secure" and "https" markers before a website's URL in your browser. If they are not there, the website might be fraudulent. Also, check for tiny dots under the letters in the url that could be mean the site is fake. This one could help to avoid being scammed by impersonators or ICO/TOKEN SCAMS Initial Coin Offering SCAMS HOW TO AVOID? Let's define first what is Initial Coin Offering or ICO? ICO is an unregulated means by which funds are raised for a new cryptocurrency venture. My idea on ICO is CROWD FUNDING . Now let's move on how can we avoid ICO SCAM Crowdfunding is shaping the future of finance. No longer does investment belong to the few and no longer does launching a project mean having to go through all the required conditions of Venture Capital investment. There are now multiple platforms where users can crowdfund their dreams and projects into reality. Observe this things to avoid it. - Unrealistic goals
- Buzzword salad
- Whitepaper
- No Code Repository
- Team
Unrealistic goals If the project does have that potential, professional developers will never make such promises. They will let you know about the potential of their project and that’s it. No serious team will ever make a price prediction about their token or claim it can fix the world. Buzzword salad “Our decentralized blockchain-based platform will disrupt the landscape of cryptocurrency investment while building a trustless network of pseudonymous users that leverage swarm intelligence technology to provide real world financial services in a tokenized ecosystem.” Some people may have a tendency to use buzzwords as a means to turn a boring text or announcement into something exciting. However, these will have a certain amount of information on it, even if you have to filter out some of the nonsense. Still, if a project needs to do this, then the project is likely to be as boring as watching paint dry. Whitepaper Whitepapers usually explain how the platform works both on the high-level and specifically. This often includes charts, calculations, simulations, specifications and so forth. If your project claims that it is building some sort of decentralized service or token with new features and actually provides no explanation of how it works specifically, then just close the document and walk away. No Code Repository This is what matters. Like someone said before “Code is law”. Even if the project announcement and whitepaper are complete trash, you can always count on Github or Sourceforge to put an end to all doubts. If the project provides no link to the code at all or if the project is nothing more than a clone with a few changed lines of code, then it’s not worth your time nor money. Team This is very important. Who is behind the project? Is the team made up of well-known members of the cryptocurrency community? Are they known in other areas? Have they been involved in previous projects? If the answer is yes, then this may be an interesting opportunity. Just remember to check if the person is actually aware of the project as scammers may use famous names just to get people interested even though these are not part of the team. SOURCE

Sure. This is scam. Too many problems in the crypto market this year. Outside the market are issues related to FUDs and the value of decline. Inside are the ico projects that include airdrop propagation and bounty scam.

Thank you so much for your work on the forum mate. I see really people want to get the free tokens instead of payment and work with bounties. Henceforth finally you will be able to get scammed because of the scam mate.
Please check the information about the project on the white paper and invest on the good ICO project. Then if possible please avoid the airdrops earning completely out.

For this concern we cannot do anything mate. Investors will be come ICO projects many times but bounty hunters who makes the money with bounty earning. After telegram bounty this bounty will be have good to get the tokens easily.

Good thing that you do already have a good eye when it comes to frauds. Anything that do ask out a privatekeys or any other signed message or ways that you can input your keys then its 101% fraud or scam. These kind of ways or methods arent new anyways and if you do already have experienced and better knowledge with these schemes then its hard for you to be hacked or lose funds.

Actually, I hate the airdrops because many people are easily fooled through their high fake value, and due to the majority of people are very greedy, so they lose a alawys their money because of those scammers and cheaters. We must be careful guys before choosing the right ICO for Airdrops. Unfortunately, the scammers are everywhere in many fields, and their number in increase over time. So when you do not have any knowledge in the field if ICO then there is a great possibility that you will be fooled by the scam ICO's . Furthermore, I saw that many people want to earn a large porportion of money in an easy way and the best example of that is the Airdrop , that is the issue. Believe me , you cannot be rich without a big effort in any field.

Exactly, nowadays there are a lot of scam airdrops, so we should be careful when we participate in them. As you said there is little airdrops which required some personal details like name and email and sometimes the private keys which it's too scammy. People should be smart and don't participate in any random bounty airdrops, at least you should read peoples' reviews to understand that is legit or not.
