Safe Bounty hunters

[terrific]

The forum is more on Bitcoin and crypto currency sharing of knowledges so i think they are not obliged to check and review if the certain ICO is a scam or not as this is the job of the bounty managers as their reputations is at stake. Anyway, the forum did not ignore any project that are proven scam as they really imposed punishment to those involved.

There are volunteers who are looking for those scam projects.
They work freely and voluntarily for the sake fo the community.
But choosing a project that you'll join with its bounty, it's our choice and we should have standards.

IMHO there must be some moderation in bounty and strict rules. If someone didn't pay or changed rules during the company, they must be banned forever. There must be the rule that ICO can't change time terms or payments during ICO or they must go to the blacklist.

Yeah, our volunteers could only do so much like to warn people or give significant information but it'll still be up to us if we want to gamble on a pretty looking project that promises a lot. Your money, your risk.

Lol... the purpose of bitcointalk thread is bitcoin specifically and other alternative coins... not for bounty hunting or any form of promotion... you hunt at your own risk

[Bairbe]

I think that not a forum should deal with this, but bounty managers who choose a project for a company!

those who don't like KYC because they don't keep their promises at the end of the campaign. they always cheat for various reasons such as reasons that are not in accordance with KYC procedures etc. . even though they have carried out the procedure correctly.

if like that, there must be a penalty for the bounty manager who manages the project scam. the fact is that there are still many scam projects and it is very detrimental to the bounty hunter. there should be a rule for procurement of ico and campaigns, to minimize fraud.

[riska hanissa]

I really agree with this!
I hope this becomes a reality, especially in the project scam
in the past year, I have participated in 4 project scams, this has disappointed my heart
and I don't like bounty which obliges to do kyc

[guoyu78]

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

Scammers are getting wise everyday, but still if you do your research and look it up you will get some hints that shows you that it’s a scam. Not everyone can be able to tell when they are falling for a scam, some scammers are wise and it takes someone who is wise to find out when they are pulling some tricks. But you’re still right, something should be done to prevent scammers from scamming bounty hunters, but I don’t think this is what the bitcointalk.org mods can do, it’s way too above them as per decentralization concepts; we only should take care of ourselves.

In all 4 projects, you got scammed for the same reason of clearing KYC ? Why not you just go for clearing KYC with the fourth one by submitting your documents. I am just trying to find out other reasons for bounty hunters getting scammed. I guess KYC is an easy option for ICO operators now a days.

[el_lobo]

I find the suggestion quite good, even if i think you can not implement it.
The admins can not check every bounty if it is legal.
I think we as bounty hunter have to decide for themselves, on which bounty we participates or not.

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

It is better for the project to be verified in advance by the bounty managers before launching. Whether the project is real or will be a scam at the end of the campaign. Making some rules and sanctions against project owners who scam I think it's a little wise. I as a bounty hunter felt anger when the project that had been followed eventually became a scam and how much of our time had been wasted because of the greed of irresponsible people.

Bitcointalk is an open platform that allow everyone in the community, I feel there is a need for regulation and  policy developers in the cryptocurrency space where ICO  will be review and allow to pass to  source for fund, not the duty of  Bitcointalk forum, Also as A bounty hunter you must ensure to research before joining   a bounty in other to reduce the risk of being scam.

I will be honest to everyone in cryptocurrency, be it bounty or whatever. You are solely responsible for your own safety. It will not be possible for the forum moderators to verify every project.

Yes they receive no salary for doing that.
They are just concern to the community and that's what they do for free.
But being a bounty hunter, everyone should be vigilant.

Perhaps KYC is a good idea, but I do not think that this procedure will bring much benefit and obviously will not get rid of scammers!

This is a good idea, working in a bounty is not easy its should spend time just to accomplish task in different kind of campaign category in bounties. Need to be a moderator for this matter we cannot depend always in bounty manager it need a help also like assign a moderator for those scammed project. The worst thing is the scammed project almost populated than a legit project now a day so much better there another move to stop this scammer.

then if you want this, are you willing to do also KYC for your account here in bitcointalk?
I think it is the people's decision if they want to join bounty campaign because btt is just a forum and a medium of information and advertisement, it is not duty of moderator to scan projects and if its a scam one they wont allow it to post here.

It is your personal job to screen out scam project, actually i admit it's not easy to discover a good project but some greenlight and instinct will tell you this particular project might succeed.

[asayoyaasa]

You know bro, moderator didn't have capasity to select or banning the ICO when its has been posted. They just moderate this forum, giving punish and trust to users, etc. So if you want to know/detect Scam ICO just do it yourself, dude. And then you can get reference for 'how to detect scam' on scam assucation. So, no need to blame someone else. Thanks

[gendang_cinta]

I don't think changing the moderator will solve the problem because the scammers are not stupid, they will always be there because they are already installed in this internet world.
especially if the development of crypto is increasing, scammers will definitely become more active because they have many prey.
but I hope there are methods that can reduce scammers.
