The bounty scam will gradually go away

[k@suy]

Your job is to avoid scammers by doing research, stop hoping for scammers to go away themselves, if that happens it means that crypto is dead, for wherever there is success and profits scammers will always be available to take advantage

It is not a job, it is our responsibility to avoid it. They won't go away since there is money involved that's why it is best if we try our best to avoid them. Since scammers are always there waiting for the right time and for their victims, we should continue to be more strict on investigating projects to avoid scammers.

The ultimate way to gradually bounty scam go away is by controlling ourselves to be involved again and get trap by the scammers. Its definitely our responsibility to avoid those scammers and no one could tell us that this bounty campaigns was a scam or else but its our sole responsibility to know it. In fact, if we were never do it those scammers will just keep on smiling and waiting for an instant money while we are hoping for a false promises of those scammers.

but they will not decrease. scammers will continue to exist even if we don't choose them. but if you look at the current bounty hunter character it will be difficult to carry out what you say. many people only choose projects by origin.

We got a lot of scammers already outside crypto, what more of inside of it plus it is in the internet anyway.
In the internet, you never know who are the people behind the monitors that's why it is more of a risk to throw your money in the internet even when there are sets of regulations.

bounty project scams will never disappear in this forum, every day bounty project scams appear or we don't even know. but in my opinion there will always be a scam project and cannot be lost in this forum. Scamers are always around us.

Lately, a lot of Bounty companies have indeed been recorded, which have paid out remuneration for Bounty hunters without any problems. But if the Bounty Hunters promote fraudulent projects, then deception cannot be avoided. Thus, very often the results of their work depend on the hunters themselves. Although if you remember the Bounty to ClipX, no one expected such a catch.

Just recently we are beginning to have some Twitter campaign giving hunters reward in btc in the service section. This is one sure way to take off this muster that seem like a cancer called bounty scam.

I'm believing that gradually, will may start seeing the inclusion of other social media signatures like Facebook, LinkedIn, medium, article, videos, blogs and many more, coming up in  both bounty section and service. I'm sure that hunters will prefer social media signature than the scam going on in the board.

I guess one reason that we are seeing that Twitter campaign is because of the audit which takes care of non real followers of an account. So if your Twitter account isn't made of real followers, you stand no chance of being selected. The audit is surely to check out accounts with fake followers and that is also good to stop scamming.

That would be a weird way to give away BTC since its easy to cater a lot of followers by creating some fake account then renaming it some time later. These twitter accounts should come for a legitimate community of people and not just fan pages. From these kinds of accounts, they might pose a threat of scamming fellow users with their elaborate schemes.

The question now is, are all projects willing to pay hunters with bitcoin or other stable coins? Scammers will never disappear from this forum because I see until now there are still a lot of scammers who come every day, what's more when the Defi hype a few months ago, I saw 100 scammers coming every day

One bad thing these days is that most scammers are no using even popular social media sites which are being used by most people. Because of that, there are lots of misconceptions about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies which is really disappointing. People see crypto advertisements as scams because of scammers who are spreading fraud online. We can't really remove scammers online easily. They will always exist no matter what we do.

This is the problem that can't even resolve to oust these scammers in this industry. The best thing that we can do to avoid such is always take time to find a good project to join. What we need to do is always do a proper research in order for us to avoid scam. Scammer will not gradually away in fact they are just waiting to scam people.

Bounty campaign still running softly during many ICO success listing with higher price and developer give applause for bounty hunter by giving reward depend with campaign joining. There are not have chance for bounty campaign become scam if ICO success and worth higher price later after listing, but when ICO down and not success we as participants or bounty campaign have understand is not wrong from bounty campaign manager or developer of ICO, but not lucky with campaign is not running well and we can't make investor trust with our promoting coin, maybe we can try other chance with new ICO and campaign bounty project, just looking with potential coin should promote to get success with reard later and have higher price.

It's impossible for bounty scam to exit this space, if crypto keeps surviving for many years to come scam projects will still remains in the space because there are still many people investing on scam projects since they have no experience and they want to make quick money

[DDante]

It's better to focus on identifying the good projects among the bad projects today, I believe it's possible with deep research and analysis, there is always a first time for everything, even if you end up choosing scam project you should learn from it, this is the way to get stronger and understand more about crypto projects and scam projects

[Samayuki]

There are huge money to be made in crypto space, if any new project team tell you that they are only here to offer services to crypto users they are just lying to you, developers are here to make money as well, it's same thing for scammers too, investors are investing in crypto for good ROI too, how will scammers go away when people still patronize them?

[bayu7adi]

Bounty scam will not go away as long as there are hunters that are willing to join even if the project is an obvious scam.

The first sight of bounty hunters is money, when you put a title with the word BTC payment, then automatically + 60% of hunters will register without needing a little research. Basically, this kind of understanding would only make a fool famous.
To eradicate scammers, we need to upgrade our mindset towards a campaign. If it makes sense, money is escrowed and accountable, then it's a good campaign.

And if the existing data is not enough to build our trust, then we can discuss it first to be sure it is a good campaign. We must be skeptical of this issue.

if there are regulations for new projects I am sure the scammers will also disappear,
but this is a difficult job, the country must have its own regulations,
or if this forum has verification to review good or bad projects I think it is very good.

Bounty scam will not go away as long as there are hunters that are willing to join even if the project is an obvious scam. But it is good to see that there are now social media campaigns that are bitcoin paying. Though we already saw that before, but seems, it is going back again. The good thing is that the manager handling that campaign does accept btc and not token or unknown alt. That is also for the welfare of the participants. At least, they are sure that they are getting paid with valuable coin rather than worthless token that is not yet listed in an exchange.

Thank you, your first line is exactly what I wanted to say, bounty scam can not go away as long as bounty remains, the only thing I know is that the rate to which bounty scams happen might reduce with time, but I dont think it can ever go away entirely, even though this is what we all wish and pray for.
Social media bounties now paying in btc is a welcome development and I know fans of social media like Twitter and Facebook will grab this opportunity to make some good money for themselves. Good luck to everyone.

The latest scam method at airdrops is "send us 0.005 eth and we will give you the airdrop, the money is for transaction fee's" is going around becoming huge. Thankfully most airdrops are telegram based with auto bots and telegram labels a project scam when enough people report it as scam so there is a bit of prevention but it takes a while and during that period they may actually get away with it.

I have checked one of them to see how much they made and they made only 110 dollars from scamming people and that gave me hope, it looks like people are finally not going into scam that much, sure that 110 dollars is sad and gone for some people and it could be a lot of money to some people but I remember millions of dollars stolen by scam projects so we are on the right track.

Service and Bounty are completely different. As for the Services, they pay us with their cash but in return we need to market them with all our efforts. At the service, the quality of the article is brought to the top and so the admin will censor very strictly to accept the participants.
I hope that in the future there will be more such services instead of scam bounty campaigns. I really like cash because we don't have to worry about our reward after it's done in the campaign. In addition, the campaigns at the Service also pay token or coin very on time. It's time for the bounty scam to be pushed to the sidelines.

in 2017 there were huge amount of bounties and not surprising that there were many scams. now the quantity of bounties is well lower and the payment is lower too so the bounty hunters  are not so active.

[Mpamaegbu]

It is imposible that bounty scams will go away because there is always a fool bounty manager that Operates bounty even he knows that it is a scam, it is just a money matter for them and also for the part of bounty hunters be careful on what bounty you have may join and please do more effort to conduct a research for it.

This will certainly be a shame, honestly. Such BMs should be called out so that others take note of their sleazy intentions. I once called one out few months ago here and the BM went ballistic. Instead of accepting their fault and mending their way the BM was belligerent and irresponsible, attacking those who disagreed with them and tagging any they felt they could tag in the process. That also got the BM red trusted by some DT members. Beyond all that, I believe this crypto space is still a big risk because sometimes you get to find projects you think were genuine turned fake before you could say Jack Robinson!

Bounty scam is going nowhere, scammers will doing their work, trying to use hunters and running after cashing out, hunters should just keep doing thorough verification before joining any bounty, that's the only way to avoid been scammed.
