Old thread
New thread

It seems they hired a new manager because I saw another campaign running but managed professionally, and I don't see scam bot appearing on the spreadsheet anymore. It was a great decision of this project and they prepared IEO at a great exchange

There can be multiple possibilities I believe.

I just read the first page of the comments.
1: Check if the thread is not posted anywhere else - like on other forums. If it is posted we can say that entries can be real (But the figure is very big)
2: Bots are bought by the bounty owner to attract the bounty hunters which can do a good job for them.
3: Bitcointalk bounty hunters did many entries and are faking it.

Can you link to the bounty here?

I often see bots like that, especially in the Telegram section, and it looks like the gift you mean is managed by the manager Sinantrra_12, if I can be honest as far as I know that every bounty project managed by that manager, often gets bot attacks on telegrams and also signature.

I think there's a high possibility that this is a person who intentionally sabotaged the bonus campaign, this guy intentionally used an automated form filling program to cause trouble for the manager, I have encountered some of these cases.

Attacks like this were never unintentional. Some guys are laughing now because they caused someone who needs to done a lot of work, and what about those people who joined during the bot attack? a true and legit account willing to join the campaign might be removed also, it is very nasty. I'm very sure it is not about cheating the campaign, the main reason for this is to ruin the campaign, what do you guys think about it?

I'm afraid that bounty campaigns will have do check their participants info before getting accepted, some of like diy know-your-customer policy from the campaign manager.

Most telegram campaigns were attacking of bots. Cheaters think they can easily make money with just joining telegram to get the stakes. The Bounty Manager should take an action on these bots.

In its spreadsheet has 5887 entries. So there are 5887 - 719 = 5168 fake/scam/bot entries.

Your math is right if the link to the spreadsheet only posts in that thread. Maybe the link to spreadsheet has been posted elsewhere so that's the reason for high number entries vs low views on thread.

Scammers won't be successful with these useless attempts because bounty managers are getting much aware and alert these days and they work with effective strategies to stop scammers hopefully new bounty managers will learn a lot from experience managers because it's necessary for a scammers free environment.

It's very possible for this to happen but where is the bounty manager? I guess the BM is new, telegram campaigns should have POA to avoid this acts, telegram campaign is always full of cheaters

This bounty thread has only 719 views.

In its spreadsheet has 5887 entries. So there are 5887 - 719 = 5168 fake/scam/bot entries.

I want to see what thread poster will do with this problem and where this thread will go. Let's watch it with me

.

There are so many scammer using bots to attack bounty here, I joined a few bounty and saw thousands of fake bots registering for bounty. It makes it difficult for bounty manager to filter these bots in their campaign. Even my information is used to sign up for other campaigns, this is really crazy

It is correct, in many campaign are attacked by fake members specially i monitoring on telegram campaign sheet. A few thousands of bots entries, it will be too much hard to find genuine participants from spreadsheet, BM have to suffer because no way to detect automatically, it’s a manual procedure to take more times. A lot of newbies scammer abusing in other participants information.

I guess the bounty campaign did not required a proof of Authentication post that's why bots users invade such bounty project, if every account have to create a proof of auth then it will be hard for the bot users to spam, so there for it's BM's fault

Just report the whole thread. I am not sure if it is a valid one since it is not entirely beyond control of the OP on how many participants decided to join, unless it can be tracked by IP or so.
Better message the bounty manager for that, because that would be annoying for this forum only to know that it is obviously farmed by only one person in the end.

They discovered the problem and stopped the entire airdrop campaign. They made the mistake of not asking for email when submitting a participant's form, they should create a new form and reopen the airdrop again if they still want to opt for these promotions.

That is good to hear, they stopped the airdrop at least they avoided airdrop cheaters to received their airdrop.

However, if they reopen and ask only for email when they submit their participation form, I think this is not enough solution to stop them from using bots. They should require every user to log into their email at least they can avoid users to repeatedly use the same email when they register.

Old thread
New thread

To get the right answer, you can immediately confirm via telegram. And it seems that the new thread handled by BountyDetective is more professional.
The allocation is not too much, but it never hurts to try

If prevention is not carried out, such as the introduction of POA, it will be an opportunity for spammers and cheaters to fake and use other people's accounts without permission.

yes, POA is now very important to minimize bot accounts and fake accounts because if you only use the Google form one can submit thousands of accounts within minutes using the bot

yes in spreadsheet too many scammers , especially this thread does not require participants to do proof so make scammers free to do the action. And not necessarily 5168 is real because I am also one of the "views" but I don't register

yes, of course it often happens in the bounty spreadsheet, especially in the telegram spreadsheet section, bots often attack there and there are also thousands of accounts registered because there is no real evidence in the form fields so that scamers can also easily commit fraud.

These scammer have destroyed this airdrop and made it stop. I think the creator of the airdrop must know this in advance because we've seen too many airdrops being attacked by bots and scammer. Btw they created a new and more closely managed bounty campaign

I was really shocked to see when i wanted to participate this bounty. There are a lot of scammers or bot users in the spreadsheet. Bounty manger can use Google Recaptcha for detecting bot and prevent them filling form. This bot behavior is seen many bounty spreadsheets.

An even simpler way is for a user to log in to gmail to submit the form. I believe this is the simplest and quickest way to remove bot and scammer. They will not be able to have multiple gmail accounts to be able to submit forms
