Been cheated again

SCAM

Bounty hunters got cheated again, actually is this ever going to stop? Do you guys remember OLPORTAL? Bounty hunters are asked to drop ETH address to get tokens and they end up forcing bounty hunters to go and download OLCF wallet and import recovery seed to receive tokens, how did they cheat? Their shit OLCF wallet only accepts Recovery seed only, leaving out those with private keys, you can only import if you are using mycelium or others like it but for those using multi wallet like Coinomi we are out of luck, the team just ignore others like that.

These is common in 90% of the bounties nowadays, cause most of the bounties you see are scam bounties,bounty hunters go through alot honestly, working and not getting paid at the end really hurts, very few bounties end up paying their bounty hunters, it's hard to tell if a bounty is going to pay or not, none of them is sure, I have also participated in a few bounties which things later went side ways, but there's not much I can do, so I forgot about it and moved on I recommend you should try it out, it helps to reduce the pain or thinking.

This is very common with bounties nowadays, as a bounty hunter be expecting such from time to time, it's inescapable unless you decide to quit bounty hunting, could be a different story if altcoin season is here but let's wait and see, 2017 was a great year for hunters because of altcoin season

All these projects and teams behind them just find one or the other excuse to either delay bounty distribution or completely avoid it.
One friend was also telling me about payaccept campaign which ended months ago, the project is up and everything is fine but they are intentionally delaying bounty distribution for months now. I think it is high time for community to come up and expose such people.

I have already given a lot of good guidance on such topics in the same case. Again saying, To the CoinMarketCap Coin selection is a prerequisite for profitable trading. If you trade carefully keeping your data safe, you will never have to be cheated. Be careful with crypto trading and save your money.

Bro this has nothing with cmc because cmc will not be able to tell which project to promote, I think you are misunderstanding the post, the op is talking about the several scam project that hunters have to deal with.

It seems that right now it is very difficult to identify a fraudulent bounty project that continues to occur in the forum, I also think that if the fraud that occurs will be very difficult to stop and of course many bounter hunters will be harmed, even if the altcoin season comes of course this will continue to make projects project fraud continues to grow like mushrooms in the rainy season.

Typical thing to have on this market where frauds and scams do exist.This isnt something new thats why you should really be aware and use up your own common sense to avoid these things.
As a bounty hunter then you should really be keen on selecting projects or else you would really be just wasting off your time and effort when you do end up on not getting paid.
This had been the norm and common on this market but there are people who do really still engage with bounty hunting even though the chances of making money or profit is slim.
They do still hope and treating it like wayback before in 2017 which isnt already possible nowadays.

We have found this kind of trick for many projects. They use their own portals for bounties and these are usually prone to scams, because
what I experience, it is very difficult to withdraw reward, even require to top up the balance first to pick up the reward. Sometimes if there
are rules like this, make me step back to take part in bounties projects. although not all projects commit this kind of fraud.

Smart in seeing opportunities and risks, that's what we need to always underline. If our level of analysis is still lacking, I am sure there are still people willing to help analyze and provide good recommendations before the request is sent which in the end we understand and are born with caution, thus the chance of risk becomes smaller.

It is every individuals Obligation to Make their own research and Don't expect others to Work that for you.

Bounties are being a Place of Scammers yet there are others that willing to become victim.

How many Bounty running per day and How many are paying ? those Copy project are tend to deceive people , promising something will come Good about the project but even before the Initial offering ends ,they are already Gone away.

This actually kinda true though, if the bounty managed by some reputable manager then it won't go drain easily when something went wrong because the manager will be responsible for it as well as pursuing the matter to the developers until its resolved.
But, still there are some projects that are honest to the core it depends on whether the developer is serious about their project or not I guess.

If they are not giving bounty hunters a full instruction on how they are going to get their tokens, then they have an intention to scam bounty hunters they did not explain what wallet to use, so everyone can claim their shares, it's misleading they want only few of their bounty hunters to get their rewards.

That's totally unfair & unkind for bounty hunters.in bounty thread, manager mentioned rules that "rules may change if team want" but team change their rules after end of the bounty and hey do something out of imagination, that let hunters in trouble.that's unfair but the reality is, that's their old style to deprive hunters from proper reward.sometimes they force to download software & put key in it, to stole money.so think twice before following their requirements
