Offering big returns after the token sale is one of the marketing strategies from start-up projects to attract their investors that sometimes backfired the project owners because they could not keep thier promise. Being greedy is the main problem here because developers knew that investors are only looking for profits and do not care about the project itself that is why they keep doing this bad practices.

I agree with your comments. In the electronic market, more and more fraud, there is no guarantee of your financial. The big reward can be a good bait to lure you, and sometimes that money doesn't mean anything.

You need to ask yourselves why they need to offer such prizes to get people to invest. The classic thing to do will launch an ICO and sell the tokens in stages each time costing a little more. This creates urgency to act quickly. A project's success has nothing to do with its promises.

There are lots of good projects that will offer great prices but that shouldn't be the first thing to consider. Before joining any project you should check how legit the project is and whether they are saying the truth. You should get to know the team, and check out their handles on social media. If they claim not to have any social media account then there is no need going for it, because it's likely to be a scam.

A legit project has a team that is active on social media, and when you check their activities it will show you that they have been around for a long time posting and updating people about their project. If you check most scam project their team doesn't have anything to show for it, and their profiles are always created newly.

There are new red flags that came from experience of ICO failure last year. :
1. high capitalization
2. excessive reward
3. some project idea, this can be out of experience
4. team members with history of scam project
5. sometimes small team members can be suspicious and too active CEO in advert.  
ICO is a no go area especially for projects with unknown institution backing

More often than not, most of the scam or fraud projects go by this trend. They offer enticing rewards and bonuses to their investors in order to lure them to the scam trap. This is why investors must be very cautious on projects that go by this trend because these bonuses are not the guarantee to the success or authenticity of the project.

You have just been scammed by such a project? In 2014 I was also scammed in projects and ponzi system. It is a meaningful experience for me, so that in other times when I invest I am more careful. There are still many users who are scammed by promising huge profits, new users and lazy to find information is a factor why scam systems like this still exist.
It doesn't mean that the projects offers great prizes and promised you that you could earn huge profits from it, it can already be considered a legitimate project. In my own opinion, most projects who do things to attract investors or people that are too good to be true are mostly scams, that is why you should avoid this kinds of scams and click baits for you not to be harmed.

Too much of presale bonus is a red flag, offers that are too good are bad generally, this is something you need to deal with mentally, if you are too greedy you will keep falling for temptations its as simple as that, go for reasonable bonuses instead, they have better plans

Currently, most new projects in the market that are conducting IEO and ICO are just here to raise some money and leave the project to die at price then blame it on bounty hunters or bearish market. Any project that guarantees a good price after IEO or ICO is most likely a scam, all that did that in the past are all dead.
Yes, it is important to make analyzation before using any project I know there are so many projects that we can use to gain money by crypto but never trust anyone without making research. New projects are less trusted than the old because for all investors it’s good to be with old projects that people used for years.

yes the fact is like that, in this crypto industry there is no full guarantee for you. Even in traditional investment, nothing guarantees you profit. There will be no certainty in future income, and if a project claims their tokens will become more and more expensive over time, it is very likely that they are lying. Of course, that does not mean that they are wrong, however, ensuring that everyone in the inevitable benefit is not responsible, to say the least. If you see a project that claims that your profits will grow tenfold in just six months, it's far more likely to be a good old Ponzi scheme than it really is, as seen in BitConnect.
So, no matter how this promise actually looks, if you see that the project offers you sky-high profits for literally no effort, it probably means that they want to make that profit out of you.

We cannot equalize all the project that claims will give lot of profits means the project will scam. We can see the IEO project from binance launchpad, it is not growing 10x times in six month. Even it's instantly 10x price right after the IEO ends. Good project that has a good future are promising in cryptocurrency era, but good project are few. That's the challenge for us investors to make a good choice what project that will make profits for us

In other words, people should stay away from projects that looks too good to be true, I have never been a big fan of projects that promise bug returns but one thing people still tend to fall for is projects that promises dividends for holding their tokens but if you study most of this projects, you would notice that their prices in exchanges fall so much and those holding the tokens would already be losing even though they are collecting dividends. Avoid Greed and bear in mind that Cryptocurrency investments are highly risky investments and you would be ok.

Maybe folders should pay more attention to the white paper of projects. There you would who is behind it, their antecedents , whether they can pull the promised reward through with respect to what they have done before

Re they still projects that make such humongous promises. Considering the downturn in the crypto-currencies market unrealistic promises this day is usually easy to detect

Under this harsh economic ecosystem why would anyone one promise returns that are out of the ordinary. I think only the gullible ones usually fall for such economic gimmick

I might be wrong but I think if it is too good to be true in terms of rewards promised, I should better ignore such projects

Whether as a bounty Hunter or investor it is safer to research the project to be sure the initiators and promoters are not over exaggerating things

Agreed, good projects should not promise huge profit to their investors as it might cause a huge damage to the proejct' reputation. I prefer invest in the projects which are likely to show a natural growth.
well, I am in agreement with you, because a good project is a project that shows the quality and development of their project, not just providing mere profit.
A good project will span a lot of years and worth promoting it unlike those projects that has the tendency to fail due to their bogus and juicy promises  whose life span will surely be short-lived its high time we should be wary of those fraudulent offers that had been painting cryptospace in a bad light and ensured that we promote projects that will add value to the system.
