This is very sad . After learning that it's a scam, I can't do anything that is clearly anger and regret that always haunts my mind.
Report to moderator after wasting the whole time on one campaign like that.

A friend of mine recently joined a bounty project and wore their signature for good four month making 15+ post every week and accumulating his require stake for the week for the entire bounty project. Just at the close of the last week of the bounty campaign he found out that the project was a scam. Ever since then, he feels very awful and despairs bounty projects.
Today, i was hoping you could share your feelings about your experience with scam bounty projects. You might want to leave behind words of motivation for my buddy to ginger him back into the business of bounty work.

That is why experience is needed before embarking on the cryptocurrency industry. It is not only traders / investors alone needed to acquire experience in this crypto world. Because the experience protect everyone.

It is really bad working for such a long period to discover project being worked for become scam. Token got from that kind of project become worthless, it has happened to me with harshrental and it doesn't stop me from working for other potential good project.

as a bounty hunter, i think it is hard to know that the project is scam. i only join in signature campaign if the project has a whitepaper and also if their tokens has a exchanger.

I've also experienced the same thing. After learning that it's a scam, I can't do anything that is clearly anger and regret that always haunts my mind.

Same, i felt anger and disappointment because all this time, i wasted my time posting and following rules in the project for nothing. This time, its hard to know if the project is scam or not, its hard to trust some projects but we cant do anything but to accept that there are so many people who wants to deceive other people for the sake of money .

Very much it is not pleasant, you worked and advertized the project long time. You spent on it the time in hope to receive payment, but did not receive anything.

I actually experienced the same.. Doing bountys for several weeks, then a month or two after the bounty, i found out it turned scam. It hurts at first, but i tried to move on. As a bounty hunter, you should be doing several projects. As the saying says, "dont put your eggs in one basket". So if one fails you have a back up. So for now lets keep moving forward specially if same thing happens again.

It comes to regrets after all those effort I give And down to scams .I spend more time and sleepless at nights just to post with there promoting projects .By the next participation I would like extra careful and keep reading there platform to be proven that it's good to involve.

Don't blame on bounty manager. You have to take your own decision.
Moreover I try to participate like 2-4 weeks in each bounty, this eliminates risk to work for a scam for free.

I feel sorry for you. I experienced it too,after you joined in a bounty campaign you putted all of your effort and some sleepless night you are hoping that it will benefitted you. But in the end unexpectedly it was a scam project that is so awful and make someone depress. Thats why always be careful to all the bounty that is suspicious make time to read in their annoucement thread and make research to it before you participate.

I haven't had such negative experience so far, most likely it is all about luck, we never know if the project is a scam or not. I would feel sorry about the time I wasted on it.But we must take it easy,it is crypto and anything is possible here.

This is the exact reason why I refrain from doing any of the ICO projects. It is better to do weekly paying projects because they assure you that you would get the payment even if it is less.
Better get something than getting nothing. My current campaign is one such campaign which gives payment after two weeks.
Although Payment is not very good, but at least they would pay at the end of two weeks.

of course before all that happens we have to find information and analyze the project that we will follow whether it is a scam or not. split from experience and choose what we think is promising.

at least now he has the experience to choose a good bounty. because not all bounties can end well, there are some of them who only make bounties for personal gain, and many will be harmed if this kind of thing continues. be careful and make it a habit to do research first before choosing a project, will avoid scams.

yes that's true, it's always very disappointing when such situations happen, but on the other hand the only thing lost is time, not money and not health for God's sake. Besides this is a great experience and in future it will help you to choose ICOs and bounty campaign more precisely and you will hardly ever be scammed again when you reach enough of such experience. Think positive!

that's the risk of participating in bounty campaigns, you should be ready for the things that might happen to the project. being part of signature campaign has no guarantee that the project will become successful or scam in the end. you should forget about what happen and just move on.

It is very sad for sure because it has been working for so long, it may be around 1 month or more and it is a scam.
We can only hope that someday we will do something like that and be careful to follow the Bounty campaign.

Well yes, I could agree that keep on trying and never give up. There are a lot of bounties that I have applied and was scammed. Even though the whitepaper and the team and also the website are well design and assembled, at the end of the day there are also scam projects like that.


   What could be the better term for GRRRR. It's really dis appointing. Imagine you spend your time for posting every day, coming up with the required post for the week then later you'll know it was Scam... But, i never give up, if i give i will have nothing in return, and once i continue at least i will have something to hope for at the end the project.
