Hi,
I am a bounty hunter and i have realized that almost all the bounties are being flooded by some morons who use one person's BTC id, other person's fb/twitter, and put their own ERC address.
They may be using some kind of bots to do that.
What i think he/they are doing is that they have made a list of btc address, fb address, twitter address, and telegram and then use them in bounties and airdrops. They have made some kind of automation software that now do it for them and they take up all the spots in the Airdrops, bounties etc. They just flood them, put their own ERC20 entries in them while using other's address.
With that they don't have to worry because their ERC address can't be traced to their identity as the rest of the info is all fake.
I have found my BTC id used at quiet a few bounties now which i never applied. Same with my twitter and fb address.
I know that a few bounties are now asking for proof of authentication post but not all of them.
With the growing security issues in BTC can't we start Google 2 factor authentication for our profile as it also has been attacked and also what can be the solution to these kind of scammers ?
I've seen a lot of cheaters in bounty campaigns and some of them really can get away with it. The good thing about KYC and Proof of Authentication post implementing in some bounties because cheaters are now getting caught. And it's the best way to flushed out the scammers in all bounty programs.

I have lived these problems more and more. Open-public spreadsheets causes these problems. I think All Bountys or Airdrops should hide the eth-address btc link or anything. After filled form, bounty should give a number and this number should written on form. This is solution.

As long as spreadsheet are displayed openly, cheaters will always gather information about hunters from it and utilize the info for cheating mostly in Airdrop campaign so as to gain enough tken for large profit.
And if the spreadsheets are not displayed openly then you won't find out that someone else is using ur id in the same bounty campaign and then you won't even report it and its a fair chance that he ends up with the rewards of your work.

I really hate someone who do that, they only use our ID and use their address, if we not really care about project that we join, our work can be claimed by someone else, or maybe in bad case both account can get disqualified by bounty manager.

That's the truth, there was a time I found out that 3 different users had copied my bounty submission using my Bitcointalk Username, my blog site and only changed my wallet to theirs. It is very bad, I wish there is solution to such practices.

If it just eth or btc address, it's okay to be displayed to the public. The important thing is to hide link for our work and link to the social media participant, so that no one knows what he has done, and only the bounty manager is fully aware of it. This will effectively to reduce copy-paste cheater.

Even if its an open spreadsheet, it's impossible for us to check all the campaign spreadsheet every day, and sometimes we need the spreadsheet to open to check the data, maybe staking or proof of authentication will do a better job to stop the identity theft, and it's not only the manager job to stop this action, as the users we need to create way, so we can eliminate the cheater and not putting too much burden on the manager

yes right, I really agree with this post. lots of fraudsters who use this method. they use someone else's identity and replace their own ERC address. they cheat without thinking of others. it is very complicated to be able to get a solution from this kind of case, because it is very difficult to trace which real identity and false identity because the fraudsters do that all with very neatly.

The scams in bounty and airdrop happen a lot, and you need to be careful to avoid falling into their trap. But usually only 2-step security with all accounts is that you can fight off hackers easily. Currently, two-step authentication is most useful.

Yes it is true, I myself experienced the same thing as the author said, there are a lot of scams that duplicate my account and change my MEW address with their address, this is an act of cowardice who is lazy to work in a bounty. If there is such a fraud, we may immediately report to the Bounty manager so that fraudsters are scribbled from the spreadsheet list.

Cheating in bounty campaigns are most commonly spread in this community. It is unavoidable, that's why bounty managers should act and do their job to distinguish those culprit. Bounty managers should detect those cheaters and implement actions to discipline them.

I am very much aware of that, this is the reason I stopped participating on bounty campaign that does not have a proof of participation because if bounty hunters do not have these option cheaters will just steal his work I just hope all bounty hunters will soon implement this option

Bounty impersonators are now common in spreadsheets. I don't know why someone would want to reap another person labour. It is left to the bounty manager to make sure they check all entries carefully for duplication of profiles.

I'm have that same issue with my other bounties too. So I advice that after registration, always check the spreadsheets just to be sure your registration went through. There you'll see if there are duplication of entry. Once you see someone using your profile , notify the BM and ban those posers. I'm so sick and tired of these scammers!

It's unbearable that people cheat on bounties since they want more for themselves so they are doing it. The proof of authentication is a way to lessen cheaters on bounties. With this bounty managers could easily distinguish those who are legit from those fakes one.

Yes somehow correct, I just noticed that maybe there is some inside job that is happening there? I am not sure, whether managers just put their own bots to have an allocation of the bounty to decrease the amount to be given to real bounty hunters.

the same experience, usually I only joined in bounty signatures and social media to fill my free time, then when I saw the social media spreadsheet, my name was listed there with the other wallet address, this made me angry because I only did the task and got nothing, I don't know why that happened, since then every time I joined the bounty I continued to monitor spreadsheets and immediately sent a message to the bounty manager if something went wrong with my stake, for all of you who do a bounty, be careful with Cheating in Bounties

Indeed, i hate those kind of guys, we already work hard for the bounty and they just took the advantage of our work without doing any effort. Usually i reported those cheater to the bounty manager.

I also noticed this some times. My data such as twitter, bitcointalk profile, etc. have been used by someone for registrations in airdrop&bounty. Unfortunately we can't protect ourselves 100% from these actions because everyone can see our public profiles, copy&paste. But i think that cheaters are lazy, they don't browse twitter or facebook in order to get data, they simply browse bounty threads on this forum and take from there, this is an infinity sourse of info in complete. So it could be a good solution if bounty managers would reject such things such as autentification proof and bounty reports on this forum. It would be better to do it privately, via email for instance, or via a form on a project's site. Also spreadsheets with results should not be posted here, it must be private too. In this way we can close the sourse of info for cheaters, in certain measure. In the same time the forum will become much more clean without these reports and proofs.
|
What should i place here? Any advice appreciated.

Cheating in bounties and Airdrops is not a good thing but most people in this forum do engage in such acts. these days most bounty managers require users to make an authentication post before you can participate in their bounties and I believe this is a good way to curb the rate of cheaters that participate in bounties and airdrops.
