Some solid tips in the first post, that is for sure. I tend to gravitate towards being especially careful when it comes to the "team" section on the websites. If they provide their real pictures, their LinkedIn profiles in which it is stated that they are indeed linked to the projects etc. If there are no red flags there, there is a much smaller change they will pull a blatant scam as that would maybe reflect on them in their personal life as well.

Many ICO have a good appearance only in the surface. Be careful and keep seeing their performance too in their project, especially in their website. See what is their goals, is it realistic or not and you should do some research before investing in their team.

Many developer use fake team, fake profile picture on their website to make investor interested, I know some project who use fake document and looks really true to make investor more interested with their ICO coin. I think how to get profitable with ICO investment is waiting how road map are clearly when publishing and how long ICO coin sale running until listing on exchange market. Will have new ICO make schedule when listing and which one market become destination for listing their coin. When you get an ICO project not clearly how long time for selling running better left and join other ICO project.

not all ICO projects are scam for there are others too that are doing good and on the off chance that you are a bounty tracker they will pay good also. Anyway, what matter here is that one can evade scam. There are defi projects likewise that could be doing good however until further notice I am attempting to check if this defi projects are simply publicity or something.

Unrealistic goals
Whitepaper
Team
I think these are something fundamental to analyze once you want to review before joining a crypto project. But if you make it simpler, all of them are only about the whitepaper. Well, it is true that we need to analyze deeply the project through the whitepaper. If everything looks okay, then why not join? But if you find something strange or suspicious, kindly forget it. It's too risky.
