Safe Bounty hunters

[Sarisang]

I hope Bitcointalk will start caring about its people ,there should be new moderators that can fish out bad projects on here to avoid wasting time of bounty hunters ,and about KYC ive come to think of it as many bounty hunters don't like KYC I'm sure if Bitcointalk is the one asking for KYC so as to limit frauds and multiple accounts bounty hunters won't complain, we will follow the rules ,but first 'SAFE US FROM BAD SCAMMY PROJECTS' ,no matter how wise we investigate a project they end up been scam ,scammers are getting wiser as well.looook at desico for example Can anyone tell me if he/she knew Desico is a scam from day one? I guess not

i think a new moderator can't solve this problem. we don't know some projects are good or bad. even a moderator. i ever join some projects which have rating over 4.5 of 5. and they have very good documents to read and have a good vision too. but still, they've scammed me. so, i think the only one who can prevent us from scam project is ourself.  we must extremely careful before join some bounties.

I agree with you and even examination of existing bounty is not the task of a moderator in this forum. the run Manager will have responsibility and should be able to select the bounty they run well.
In addition to the foregoing, it is identified it is not easy to do and if there should be a new moderator then it's not a solution in this settlement. will be back again on each of the research about how to choose a bounty.

forum moderators do not have to select the right projects or not. but bounty managers should do this. so you need to choose the right managers.
I was participating in Desico. and i was thinking that this is a good project. I hope they will go to the prison

But even bounty managers are having difficulty in selecting which ICO is real, some others are turns out to be scam even if it looks so good. Well, I guess we should not blame managers if the project is scam.

Oh its left for one to do his or her research very well before joining any campaign but its true that no matter how smart you are you will still get scammed of your time by joining a fake project that looks almost original

There is no need to do that. Bitcointalk moderators have no obligation to moderate the ICO bounty projects.
What we can do as bounty hunter is doing deep research about the project we want to participate, just like investors.
If you think the ICO is not real, just not doing any bounties and wait for a good project so you won't wasting your efforts later.

You have a point but there are even projects that success in providing KYC in rating sites but still ended up scam project . I like your idea actually but I don't think it can minimize scam projects .

I really think this is where the moderators need to step in. Anyone shouldn't just put up a bounty campaign without having a form of thorough scrutiny from the moderators and approval if the project is actually real. The Bounty Managers should be compelled to provide proof of the legitimacy of the project they are managing its bounty.

I think KYC should be for the investors not bounty hunters ,we help spread the news that's our job and we should get paid for it with no KYC ,I don't think bitcointalk forum can do that ,that's why we have many bounty platforms out there ,jut find yourself a trusty bounty manager and follow him for awhile

I guess soon you'll have the moderators work and submit bounty proofs for you while sit back and get paid ? The very least you could is to do your own research follow your guts after complete analysis of what the project and its  team is offering, that shouldn't take you long. Oh, sorry why does the forum has moderators whose hands are filled with cleaning the tons of shitposts folks like you make every second. The fact the forum allows member to earn from it is a BIG ADDED BENEFIT, and the forum literally has nothing to lose if it stop allowing it.

I guess even after much investigation or research into a project, people still get burned like the one mentioned above which I believe most people even if not all most have done some looking into before they participated and probably the bounty managers too must have been some that are know in the crypto space. So I believe the general message here is something has to be done to reduce the wasted efforts invested in fake bounties.

I still wanna agree to this. I believe if the moderators can step up their game, there should a way to actually still fish this nonsense projects out. However,  the fact still remain that much of the works goes to the bounty manager and probably the bounty team.

mods and reputable members of this forum are already helping to bust those fishy projects whie some bounty managers didnt really care on what will he ended up or on what will the participants end up because some bounty managers only care about thier selves . they sometimes pick up a project even if they knew that it was scam but because the pot money is pretty high  .  he'd rather risk his reputation because of this   .

scam ico's are also hard to combat because they are still growing day by day not only on this forum but also on the entire world wide web  .

I think this forum already did good job to filter which one is good or bad project with see some respond from member in their ANN thread. But it is all depend to us to pick which bounty is good or not, or maybe we must think like investor so not wrong to pick project.

[Pffrt]

Why bitcointalk forum should interfere here in bounty? Can't you save yourself and avoid promoting shitcoins? We people just don't do any homework before joining a campaign. Can we please only promote the good projects managed by a good camoaign manager and have a good idea behind the project? It would be better.

If the person does not want to take care of his safety and money, analyzing the project before he invest in it, why it should make the administration of the forum?

It's very difficult nowadays to distinguish between a legit and scam project.

Scammers became more knowledgeable, they use good Whitepapers, di a lot of external references, take care if social media activity etc. By participating into bounties we assume the risk of being scammed unfortunately.

[ipanks]

I think it's personal responsibility to select the project as the bounty hunters and it is why you need to know almost everything about the project including the team behind the project. One thing you miss, then it will lead you to get scam by them, and you cannot complain to anyone. There is a good project with a reliable team in out there, and they do not just prove that they are a legit project, but they also have a great project that continues to develop the next phase. So be careful when you want to join as a bounty hunter and make sure you know the project.

External references were created from fake information so by deep research we can identify most of the scam and lot of social activity also can be fake by paid shills and fake review site so we need to see there is actual discssion in the social platforms.

[galya.crip]

KYC itself does not guarantee that the project is not a scam, and therefore there is no particular desire to pass it from the hunters more than once it happened that after passing the project went into the shadows.

Before joining any projects, we must be fully aware of potential success nor potential failures, scammers are also learning from the current trend so aside from deep research we also needs to learn more about the team behinds and not only to speculate but we also needed to make more deeper investigations before we go and work for them.

[Georgiyk]

Indeed, now there are a lot of fraudulent projects. And the problem is that the scammers go unpunished. It got to the point that when the project turns out to be honest and pays a reward, I never cease to be surprised!
I agree that we need regulators who will study the project everywhere, and only after that will they allow the project and the team to enter the arena and take responsibility for the bounty hunters.
And in general, need to create an additional thread on Bitcointalk, where to publish fraudulent projects, display a photo of the team and the manager who led the project.

[moynul2050]

we cannot blame the forum for this situation. those of you who decide to take part in a project that you believe will run well and successfully, and ultimately if something happens to the project. then who is to blame? isn't that your decision from the beginning?
