Hi guys, last March 23, 2018 I received an email from [email protected] which his message states that "You are entitled to receive an advance bounty reward from (Altcoin_Name) Coin Bounty Campaing for your participation. Go to the fowling address to redeem your Bounty Reward using redeem code: wwv.myetherwallet.com#redeem-token" When you open their website it will ask to enter your Private Key and wait for 3 hours to received the tokens. So guys beware of any person who will try to ask your Private Key. I had reported this issue to the owner of the Altcoin_name and sadly I was been disqualified in their bounty campaigns...
"Wait for 3 hours to received your tokens" and that has the same mean if we are giving the time for the scammers up to 3 hours to move our balance to the scammer wallet. What a shady method by scammer in these days.
There are so many fake emails right now and be careful with everything.
thanks for all the info,
with a lot of fake gifts I think we should be careful,
I often get emails, but I first learned the contents
if they ask for a private key or offer ico that is too excessive or looks silly,
I prefer to stay away because I do not want to take any significant risks

This is a scam, usually the sender makes almost the same as the bounty or ICO that is running at that time. and my advice do not open links linked in the email, if you want to check the truth you only see the official site in the sender's email and manually open it through a new tab. And do not believe a bit if the site is very similar to the wallet site.

When you open their website it will ask to enter your Private Key and wait for 3 hours to received the tokens.

One should be an idiot to give somebody his private key - it's like giving your banking card pin or cvv code.
Internet has been widespread for over 15 years already, but they still hope to find some "easy meat" to cheat on.
I wonder where all these scammers get their e-mail lists from?

That is so predictable to be scam. First of all, legit rewards will ask for your address but not for your private key. Never trust ICO or people who are requiring you to enter your private key. Scammers have a lot of way just to deceived people

Isn't it weird that they give away free coins and they even mail you to get that reward  Cheesy I think if you very into such airdrops, bounties etc. Use another computer that you don't do something about your wallets.

Scammers are doing everything to surely persuaded someone and this kind of thing is very normal to Cryptocurrency space where they will give certain tokens that doesn't any value at all so they can persuade someone in giving them any amount, Or even your private key which is obvious and anyone can really have an idea that certain thing is a scam or a fraud!

I will never trust any company or person that ask my private key its like giving away all your funds to your wallet, this is a big no no people should educate himself that private keys are private property, even asking your private key is a big no no it's a sign that its a scam project.

Becarefull they probably want to hack you through phising or they want to know your id. Bpunty manager will never email bounty hunter for claiming the payment. It will be done automatically i always do bounty and never give anything through email.

could've been ascertained it was a scam. When did receive a gift then surely based on following an activity or registration and do not need to enter a private key. just ignore that kind of stuff for the sake of its own security.

If they ask for private key or account password etc  Always avoid such airdrops or bounty.
No one is ask the private key and account password. But many beginners are wrongly paste the private keys in some bounty campaign. This is main reason to hack the private account but some fake airdrop and bounties are not a easy to identify in crypto platform because many trust projects also failed in anytime so suddenly close the project.

scammers commit fraud not only by email but also by telegram, they claim to be part of the Team of an ICO project, they offer tokens and lure us to follow them.
