How to spot a Scams

[arpon11]

If you see an opportunity that is too good to be truth you should be careful because that is a scam opportunity.  Many people invest into a projects because of the ways there rate the opportunity in it by buying after reading white paper and if you invest you will find out that there are scam.

Investors must also be aware of the roadmap that is "too good to be true" / too good for reality. For example: they promise 100% of their ICO will be the second Bitcoin and promise lots of prospects or high ROI (Return on Investment). Most companies that express sentences like this are usually fake companies like Bitconnect which can only give sweet promises and sell dreams, this is because the value of a company cannot be measured based on their expectations and is only a market that can determine whether a company has the right have this value. But the company could be "market make" or the term "frying" their own coin prices, but this is not often the case and it is very unhealthy to expect something "not necessarily" to happen.

Do not be easy to be provoked in a detrimental investment with a very large profit offer because this could only be a loss for us always careful in choosing investment

It’s so hard to know that the ICO are scams. Unless if you’ve been a victim before. Have you heard about Myshield the first decentralized Anti-Scam platform that will definitely help us eliminate and destroy those Scams in Crypto industry. If not now then when?

To know and identify a scam is to check first their ICO project if it is still updating, then if it is still updating check the white paper and the amount of the softcap and hardcap so that you will know if they will reach or they can reach the amount if not then they might pay the member with small amount of token or they might not continue the ICO project. Some of the project that is not updating it then it is also a scam.

I think it's not too difficult to recognize a Scam project. First, get to know each member of the project team. Then the Website, the white paper of the project must be professional, not plagiarism. The concept of the project is also very important, it must be clear and realistic.

I really hope the telegram group can sincerely help to identify scam project for long but my fair is,  once those scam project start giving them money,  they won't pick them as scam. Just like all this ico rating site,  initially,  they were rating coin genuily but now, I doubt if they give poor rating for a project owner that tip them.

In my experience in choosing a ICO bounties is hard, some of them it looks legit but turns out to be a scam but their are ways to increase your chance in picking the right ICO.

You can spot it easily by checking the project first and visit their ANN thread, check their team, their website and join the telegram group. A good project will have an activity on their ANN thread and their telegram group. If no activity and chat only full people asking bounty, then leave.

On spotting a scam, you can definitely spot it easily based on the project. And on how the way it is being handled and  market into the public. Research and reviews also helps to identify if its really a scam or not. You can also spot it as a scam through negative feedbacks and less endorsing of the project. If its concepts wasn't clear then there it seems to be a scam. To avoid being scammed, do some researching and have a time to review about tbe project if it is going to be a good project or not.

it's very difficult to find ico scam even if you have been a victim, will not be able to find the next ico scam and for that we only need to read the thread often at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0

joining the community is the most effective thing in every discussion.
but I don't think anyone really can guarantee that.
every investment in ico is part of the risk as well as investing in altcoins.
I think knowledge plays an important role in this field. as well as experience.

News or good news for us bounty hunters..
Just be more careful to choose ico at this time, by finding information as much as possible the projects that will be followed..Through official websites and teamwork that you can trust..

[Adriano2010]

I also think is hard to spot a scam if there can't find some info who can make think that is a scam, also scammers search a lot of ways to cover and is even more hard to spot a scam, but always is better to research and see what community say, if there is any, or info on forum or somewhere about that ICO.

Website templates are available in huge numbers so even you may get scammed by looking at the site as well so better choose the ICO with the team information, worth of product and white paper.
These things will allow you learn more about ICO.
If you see legitimacy then you can invest else stay for your safety.

To determine the quality of the project you need to pay attention to the following factors:
1. community (telegram, kakao, discord groups), activity in chats.
2. project team (information from independent sources)
3. rating on rating sites (icobench, icodrops ..)
4. the idea of the project, the product, the ability to use in real life.
5. technical side, tokenomics, consensus algorithm, whitepaper.
6. partners
7. information about the project in the press (HYIP index)
8. website quality
and more..

if we have done research and there is something that makes us unsure about the project whether it is scam or not, I don't think it is good for us to force us to join the project. join the project that really makes us sure.

I don't think it's quite easy to spot a scam, considering the fact the perpetrators take their time to design every bit of their crime. So you can hardly figure out the real intention of this scam. So I would say you need to make a deep research always

[okala]

If you are not carful you can end up investing in a scam ICO without you knowing, the last time I was involved in an ICO that turn out to be scam was when I was carried away by the overzealous promise from the team the promised a good return and even announced the achievement of the hardcap but at the end the team ran away with investors found. So you have to do toror check on project before you invest in it to avoid scam.
