1. 50% project about ETH platform is scam or trash due to the fee of creation (it's too cheap).

Ill say it would be more on 95% of them are complete trash where coins used up erc20 token platform. We have seen they are flooding the entire market using up the same which same as you said creating a coin is too simple.

Quote

2. Some airdrops require us to charge fee GAS before they pay airdrop coin. We should care with it.

Only dumb persons would send ETH to those scammers pretending that they need gas to send up those tokens. When we do talk airdrops then its completely free and anything that do charge is complete scams.

3. Some airdrops send us an email to KYC and follow us to a fake side.

KYC for Airdrops is bullshit.

Any scam methods, please share your experiences in this thread. Thankyou so much

Are you serious, regarding these points as these are the steps which are followed by nearly all the projects and if you talk about KYC then it is personal choice to fill such projects or not. You cannot declare any project scam in the early stages you need to wait for some time until they start working, scam is when team stop to work and does not care about its investors then you may consider it as scam.

3. Some airdrops send us an email to KYC and follow us to a fake side.

They are only collecting information from their airdroppers and everyone should be warned and aware about that.

Don't be also get fooled if they are asking airdroppers to pay or send a little amount of ETH direct to their address, it's a scam. Airdrops should be free and without payment.

Also don't give them your private keys if they ask to.

Yes, you'r right. In airdrop, we must say NO with fee, private key

Yes don't get trapped to those kind of airdrops and also don't enter your wallet's private key if they ask yku they never need it for any purpose other than to steal your money.And also try to search abkut the project most kf the scammers will give fake details about the team.

This is totally valid. There are so many scam projects that their percentage is increasing day by day. Scam projects have made the choice very difficult for people and people end up showing no interest in any bounty project at the end. Other than the signs you mentioned, the major 2 signs the project is fake is that 1st they don't have an official website and 2nd the team of the project was involved in scams earlier.

quite right, now there is a lot of deception, because the projects do not pass any verification .. I think this problem will be solved in the future and the investments will be safe but less profitable

A lot of emails are being sent to me about the KYC in airdrops and its a total shit, be careful on clicking links. Not just in airdrops but in everything here in cryptoworld, bounty can also be a scam so take time to read about the ICO, ask for some details and ask for your friends to help you know if the project is a scam or not.

We must also be able to analyze a new project, because of the possibility there is also a great project to end up with a scam I think we could examine first before you join a project

Yeah your correct and I think in the first look it's difficult to identify those scam projects as they are now improving their strategy. Anyway with our help in this community we can warn in advance.

I do not use airdrops for earnings, I think that they have lost their relevance due to the large number of scammers. But even if the project is a real, very great chance that you will not be paid your tokens without any reason.

I participated already in 50 projects and 7 of them turned out to be a hoax ... the development team simply ceases to communicate ...

The information is really useful! It is especially dangerous when such a project requires to pass the KYC system! You risk to provide your data to scammers!

Nice pieces of info. To be fooled from sweet advertisements from the projects team. They might be catchy and interesting but there something behind it. Another one that indicates the that project is an obvious scam is they ask for private key. Everyone must be aware of that. Hopefully no one click on the bait. Thanks for the info, helpful for newbies.

I try not to participate in AirDrops where I need to pass KYC. Even if you are paid these coins, it will be about $ 10-100. It's not worth your passport details. I also do not participate in AirDrops, where you yourself about prepayment should pay the fee

A bad thing about bounties is that there are many scams around. The team behind them might just be in for the money. A way of identifying the scams is if you take a look at the team of the project. If it is a scam, you probably won't find much information about the founders.

In airdrop project, we rarely find out about the founders. But to invest for long time, we should make clearly this issue. Good idea. Thankyou so much.

Some airdrops just collect information about you. When you enter your wallet they look at your balance and if you have a lot of money in your wallet they can try any way you steal them. You have to be careful not to keep all the money in one wallet.

Thank for sharing, I will be careful in spam email. Most of them are scam.
