I wish this could be stopped but I don't know it's possibility, hunters will waste resources and promote scam projects or the one's without value. I feel the major remedy to this should be studying projects properly before taking part in their campaigns
As long as member's earn from participating  in bounty it will continue. The better thing to do for hunters is not to stop bounty participation but to choose only a good project to promote not every campaign is good for investors that's why as a hunters its also our job to review a project before making any promotions.

Scam can easily be detected by the activities of the team. If a team is transparent and understands their project they're always on every channel communicating with their community but when team presence is lacked on any project social media especially telegram its pure scam.

You have a good point. As we have seen here in the forum there are a ton of projects that keep busted due to their fake team or even copy-paste content of their articles. We are very lucky that we have good forum members here in the forum who actively busting shady projects. OP's statement was right and I agree all of those what he said.

I think the OP has clearly given much information about how to spot a possible scam bounty and I just wish bounty hunters would heed to this piece of advise and campaign for projects that are worth it! Sometimes, we are all part of this menace you know, once a scam projected is promoted by several individuals you are likely to conclude this project will be good but most of the time it turns out not good. Look at what happened to MiracleTele and BCNEX. Total scam projects yet they had great reach in this industry.

I noticed that when work for a company is hard, it usually takes a lot of resources for such companies and in the future they are the most problematic in terms of payments.
While other companies where work was easy and simple, sometimes very unexpectedly pleased with payments. In other words, the easier it is, the more likely it is to get a return.

sometimes the scam players can still do a very smooth performance without being detected by the members who really scold the project gamers, many cases of these scamer do their activities well and after the fund collection is completed a few days later they scam and bring investors money away.

Some scam projects can never be traced at first but as the bounty goes on, you will notice some invalid changes that became so unreasonable. It really depends on the bounty hunter too if he becomes keen observant on the bounty so that at an early time, he can avoid a bounty that is totally a scam.

We have new bounty managers amongst us so don't expect that they will do their job perfectly, no one is perfect, I've corrected a bounty manager about not putting on dates on the spreadsheet and he adjust, we are human do not judge that easily

Miracletele and bcnex looks so real that I nearly invest on the projects but what happened in the end? Thy turned scam, but it's good that bounty hunters get paid, only those who decide to hold get fully rekt, I will never hold tokens from bounties no matter how good the projects are, I've learn enough lessons

OP claimed that we should run when spreadsheet is not updated every week, well you are only misleading  bounty hunters, some bounty managers are just lazy and sometimes they introduce better projects, if you don't have good patience you will miss out

Alchemy bounty manager always update spreadsheet very late and sometimes it takes more than a week for him to update the spreadsheet and many bounty hunters get angry and start leaving but in the end he finished the job once the bounty is over, learn to have patience

Many OP points are wrong and right also, the fact is OP points is not 100% pointing at a project as scam, some of these faults are just mistakes from bounty managers, low rated or slow projects can bring the highest bounty profit to you, bounties are based on research but luck is still needed

I don't think it was a fatal problem even though the patience of the participants was greatly tested in the Alchemy campaign, because in other projects there were also such things, so the participants had to always keep their posts from being lost before the spreadsheet was updated.

I defiitely agree to all of the following listed for a bounty scam, especially to no.7 that spreadsheet isn't updated even for a couple of weeks, the manager is too lazy to check works of bounty participants. And i also agree that if theres many tasks to do, it could be suspicious that the bounty would end up scam or unsuccessful.

I think it's not the bounty manager's fault, bounty managers are not lazy, they work sincerely as they are paid for it. When you see BM is not updating spreadsheets and not answering questions, then you may think it's the project owner's fault because sometimes the project owner stop paying to BM, so BM normally stops managing it! Though some high ranked bounty manager behaves like shit, when they stop updating sheets, we can think it's bounty manager's fault. This all is my opinion, It can be wrong too!

you're right, we can only reduce it. however, they will continue to try to make new things as real, but that is all a fraud. even some people make the project a scam at the end of the project.

I conclude that when the price of cryptocurrency is still expensive and can still generate a lot of profit and it's easy to influence new traders or investors, scammers and fraudsters will never disappear from the world of cryptocurrency, in my opinion only from good and not cryptocurrency education misleading, which will make cryptocurrency clean again.

Exactly, it is impossible for us to find out about the company's nature at the preliminary stages, the only thing we can find out is about their activity and their team members. Even a project has a solid team and solid road map has failed in crypto, bounty payments are completely based on the luckier.

Scammers are unstoppable, get used to the present condition and learn from your mistakes, ICO and IEO projects are so dubious that you can't read them perfectly, invest the only amount you can risk and promote bounties for luck sake

I think the price of cryptocurrency goes up and down according to market demand or like a bubble, and is currently rising to the top.
and will probably reach its peak in 2021 and then fall again.
it is natural because market conditions vary every year and will never be stable.
