bounty hunter

I got stuck with a question bounty hunter - Isn't he a criminal???

For example a person promotes (Bounty) projects, in the end learns that projects fraudulent
support in fundraising, but get nothing for it

What say comrades??

Technically yes since the bounty hunter helps to promote a scam project as easy as that but some or most of the bounty hunters are not reviewing the project and doesn't care whether they were a legitimate project or not they just up for rewards.

More like saying investors are criminals if they invest in a project that ends up becoming a scam, thats a very wrong thinking, bounty hunters are victims of scam project and their dubious ways, many project owners only have the intention of rug pulling and nothing else, there is nothing criminal about promoting a project you thought was genuine.

The real criminals are the project owner. But Bounty manager also has some responsibility about it and as a bounty hunter you also have a responsibility about what you promote, but less than BM and Owners as my view.

You cant say unless if Bounty managers are part of the team then its hard for you to find out if the project is legit or not.This is why as bounty hunters then you do need to study and made up some research initially if the project is really worth to be advertised or not..When you do know that it is already a scam then why would continue to advertise it?
If you do then you are tolerating on what they've been doing which means you are also a criminal too.Its just ethical for you to stop rather than continuing
and also you do already know that you wont really be paid up. then whats the point of continuing?

The campaign manager is not responsible whatever the negative things happen during bounty, he is also getting paid for managing the campaign. Even he is also one of the people like us, which he will research the basic things about the project and start promoting the campaign in order to get awareness about the project.

Correct statements. The managers who are well known here are known to have a good track record of the project they campaigned about and in most cases the project paid their hunters and participants as per discussed terms.

Often new managers hoping to get a job here, attempt to go with the shady projects but of they dont get paid up-front. From a project owners perspective paying the manager upfront is not going to be common, added the fact that 99% of the coin offering projects are failures from the start.

Still hunters should do their own research. Missing out things that could easily identify the project as scam is not a good thing.

There is no way to know if a project will be successful or not and there is no way to know if you will get paid after promoting the project, in this life if you don't take risks you will never get anywhere, the future is unpredictable so accept any bad ending and move on

This is a very controversial situation, for so many years the criteria by which it is necessary to allow the creation of Bounty rules have not yet been created.  After all, anyone can register and create a fraudulent Bounty.

Scam projects who are launching are the criminals, but the body doesn't know what was the real intention behind the project. At the time of launching, everything seems to be very legit and impressive, but after fund raising I don't know why they will not be on their promises about the future developments.

if the scam projects are the criminals, then bounty hunters are accomplices, people need to check if the project is valid or not, if they can't be
sure, than they gotta face it and accept that they helped spreading a particular scam project, and also helped encouraging other scammers.

None of these statements are completely correct. The legal system related to bitcoin is still grey and calling someone a criminal for a currency that has still not gone out from its development is wrong. Although we can consider token offerings to be shady stuff if not a legal security, still many times managers and bounty hunters make mistakes.

A fine gesture indeed. But will people follow your advice? No. Bounty hunters in this forum act like brain dead zombies, though the condition has improved nowadays. Even then we see idiotic users keep spamming bounties that have been declared scam and then come back spewing bile in the "Reputation" section about their negative trust ratings.

Bounty managers are only responsible for late announcement if there are with their payment and communication with project representatives. They are the same employees like hunters, but on different conditions and tasks.

Many times I've experiences, that 4-12 week bounty ended, managers says he had not received any payment after first week and project representatives are silent or ignoring him. In such case full responsibility for hunters wasting time is on the manager.

bounty hunters are not completely criminals, most of the bounty hunters are trapped by themselves with fraudulent bounties, they are not aware of what they are promoting as bounty hunters, therefore we as hunters alike are looking at and providing news with more valid information about potential bounties. in the future

They often get trapped true, but a good and honest person will immediately withdraw all support from that project and move away from it as a gesture of correction of their wrong moves.

Now this does not happen with every hunter and something the fault is directly on them too. See majority of bounty hunters in this forum dont even keep track of what they are promoting for months. They come to the forum to sign up on a bounty and then keep spamming the social media with their tweets, likes and so on. If some research is dumped in the Scam Accusations, they never know about it because they never visit those sections of the forum.

This cannot be corrected by others but the hunters themselves.

Quite a difficult question. I've seen people who create posts ANN and Bounty throw negative trust. But for an ordinary hunter, no. In essence, they act as advertisements for investors. And investors should already study the project themselves and invest at their own peril and risk. I think you shouldn't throw all the blame on the hunters.
