I've seen many users complaining about being scammed by ICO projects most of them are new investors which probably gonna be the next generation of investors in cryptocurrency industry. I've been here in the cryptocurrency industry for a year and I've invested into different projects and seen how they disappear in the thin air, so to avoid this I want to share to you my criteria on choosing the right ICO or project to invest in.

This is not guaranteed but maybe in some point it may help you atleast to reduce the possibility on getting scammed by ICO's, the list below are my personal criteria how I choose Project to invest with using bitcoin or other cryptocurrency:

• Check the Background of the team (If the team didn't give info about each member of the team such as name previous projects, background, etc. There's a possibility that they will just run away with your money if they didn't give info's about their team.)
• Read their whitepaper and look if it's really worth to invest with, their concept, etc. (This is important to know what the project is all about.)
• Check the Social media accounts, If you find it very interesting presentable. (Join their telegram group in order to be updated.)
• Check the Projects professionalism (How they handle users, control frauds, etc.)
• Follow their Roadmap and other technical details and see if they meet it on time.
• Look for the projects community and see if the community is active.
• Look for special proof and validation.
• Do your own research about the project such as review about the projects or you can also check the projects ANN thread to see comments who's agree/disagree or the communities idea about the project because ANN threads is like an open forum where you can ask, give insights, etc.

Nonetheless, now, many trick ventures are exceptionally keen. They can play conveniently and without exciting doubt. Presumably the same as should be expected ICO. The ICO trick likewise has an organized and orderly structure to cheat its enthusiasts. Furthermore, this is extremely unpleasant. I here and there still delay to contribute. As an answer, I had a discourse with my companions about the venture.

the scam is to be overcome. When it is not able to resolve this or are not capable of analyzing the existing ICO scam then I think investors will not get the results they want. as a result, it is natural when currently many ICO could not succeed because it does not have investors and insufficient in their sales targets. at least the analysis will help though not a guarantee can be entirely able to avoid scam.

Even though i'm not an investors, but the tread is really good. I've always done few of those you mentioned before to avoid scam project. Cause doing bounty campaign on a scam project is a pain in the ..., that way i should find a way to minimize the chance of being scammed.

Good advice, way too many people are too relaxed when it comes to protecting their coins and if you have not been scammed before then you will not know how painful it is to get your coins stolen from you. Always make sure that you are following accurate security measures when it comes to the access and usage of your coins and your wallet because you don't know who might be lurking

As if we have not yet avoided it, it will still be the case that people will simply begin to use what you do not know and will be deceived several times. We definitely need services to identify scam. This will probably be the right decision.
