Bounty Manager TheCrypto360
So far, He haven't paid Bounty Hunter, so be careful and check it properly.

That's right, it should be with a Bounty Manager that has been tested and a decent account, not a new one. But I was tempted when I joined the first time and paid properly, but I didn't look at it thoroughly.

I also continue to monitor the movements of existing BTT, Telegram, and Spreadsheet, and I have seen that BTT and Spreadsheet have started to become active again since November 23. but didn't do any activities, so I was confused about what to do if he wasn't active enough to interact by asking what was going on.

In fact, I suspect that now he is starting to open new accounts ; BountyMaster07

by also creating a bounty; Liang Token
service announcements (Altcoins ); Liang Token

Why can I conclude that the characteristics of making a Bounty are the same as those that have been made so far, and the clock on BTT is the same time? I hope the information I created is correct.

Obviously and bounty is very much a session and part of the forum but then, when you linger in this field (bounties) full of scams and worthless tokens, you’re often sure of what to expect.
More over, having a manager in a new account, I’ll live that one there.

Most times people work on a project, you as well be good to look up the manager of the project and that would by far serve some guarantee on fulfilling promises made to participants.

I can see that your manager @OP has been active through 28th November, you could as well @OP keep up talks with your manager, maybe he would update you on what the issue is and when you guys would get your reward.

There's nothing wrong with that, the forum allows you to create alt account as much as you want.

If the person who manage the bounty is known as a scammer, then even you've collect the proof and wait the time to tell the truth, it's not important anymore.

The key is avoid to join bounty, if you want you can consider to only join the bounty managed by high trusted user or the funds is already escrowed.

Your assumption seems to be very correct. I also believe that this account is not operated by beginners because the posts are made only for Bounties and not for anything else. This means that this could be a specially created account, and of course, there are other accounts that are also used to accompany it. but it is difficult to provide more accurate proof of this assumption. 

It's very clear that activity still occurs frequently on this account, even though it's not used for interaction. It's hard to know what is being done and for what; let time tell. 

I doubt that these newbie bounty manager accounts are really operated by beginners.
The Bounty Manager account, called OP, only posts related to the projects being handled. Even though they are online quite regularly, there are no discussions regarding projects or posts on other boards that support the bounty manager's career and reputation on the forum.

I assume the newbie account with the Cooper member who is the bounty manager is operated by someone who is used to doing this. This is just an assumption, there is no incriminating evidence yet. but from what the bounty manager does and the attitude of the bounty manager. clearly shows unprofessionalism.

Unfortunately these newbie bounty managers are not very reliable and often end up scamming or disappearing without explanation. I made the same mistake when I was lower rank of joining a bounty managed by a newbie without an established reputation. I wasted a month of my time only to end up not receiving payment. Forum users should beware of newbie managers and only join bounties managed by people with a high level of trust.

Once again, thank you for your suggestions and input to find someone who can be accounted for, even though when you first joined him, BM paid on time, so I and several colleagues really trusted him.
 
For suggestions on posts like you said, I have tried to correct them even though they may not be perfect, but this will be a lesson for me and my colleagues who don't know yet. Thank you again for your support.

That's right, there's nothing you can do anymore if BM isn't cooperative, he can't even provide follow-up on the current situation. Like the advice I gave previously, from now on only follow BMs that have a high reputation and credibility so that you will not experience an incident like this again.

Slightly correct the responses you make, you don't have to reply to them one by one separately, it would be better if you put them in one response, because otherwise the responses you make will be spam.

When you hire a bounty manager on wish...

Bitcointalk is known for so many experienced bounty managers. Saving money by hiring a cheap bounty manager will hurt us, long-term.
A good bounty manager will know about any issues and be able to find a good solution.
It will save everyone money after all.

It's good that you're already learning from your mistakes. Most of us the high ranked members also passed through that sad experience. I ain't sure that's going to end anytime soon. Criminals will continue to explore that option in bounties to hoodwink investors who come here to pick projects they put their money on. The best thing is to steer clear of bounties that don't pay with well established alts. If they're paying with their own unlisted coins, they may renege on that later.

Yes, there's often a stern warning for hunters not to ask anything relating to bounties in the official TG handles of these projects and that's so investors don't find out when things go wrong with the projects. The handlers are always ready to ban anyone asking in the group. That's why.

Yes, bounty managers' actions like that are very unprofessional. you have marked it. and Op or his bounty hunter friends can ignore bounty managers like that. for now and also in the future.
newbie account becomes bounty manager, isn't there something wrong? even though we don't know the person behind the newbie account. but bounty hunters can gain experience from this case.
What is certain is that the bounty manager will come again with another account. What's confusing is why are there projects that contract bounty managers like that. Meanwhile, on the forum, there are quite a lot of bounty managers who have a good reputation and experience.

A newbie account become bounty manager check.
Bounty rewards not escrowed check.
No official ANN and project representative check.

What you can expect? the manager will not lose anything since his account is newbie rank, he can create a new account and start manage a new bounty, yet you still join it. The only way is attacking their social medias to warn other people, which I think it's more wasting time than works.

Yes, I think even if there is a disclaimer from the bounty manager that the distribution will be done by the team itself or the project, he should at least open a communication line between the bounty hunters and himself.

And when he log-in to this community, there's none of that, maybe he is also waiting for a PM from the project. But at least keep the hunters in the loop as it's already November and many weeks have past without the bounty manager updating the participants and it looks very shady at this point.

I have already carried out your suggestion. I also know that BM has been active since November 23, 2023, after being inactive since November 10, 2023. I continue to monitor movements on BTT and spreadsheets, but there is no movement according to what was promised. Usually BMs are very active on Telegram, but currently there are no BMs appearing on Telegram at all.
 
Meanwhile, if we go to the official telegram of the project, we have also done this, and even several colleagues have actually been banned from the official telegram because they keep asking about the whereabouts of the Bounty Manager, who doesn't appear. Of course, it's difficult to ask anything else. Just to ask about the existence of the Bounty Manager, our account was banned.

Thank you for your support. Until now, my colleagues and I have been waiting for good etiquette from the Bounty Manager via telegram or posting here. If there are changes from the Bounty Manager, then it is appropriate for me to provide the information again for correction. I always hope that there are improvements and changes that can be made by Bounty Manager.

 

It was supposed to be paid after 4 weeks of the campaign duration, as the campaign thread says. It can be delayed for many reasons but keeping no communication with the hunter is totally unprofessional. He should at least keep them informed about what is happening, why, and when will they get paid.

I just tagged him so he posts here. Will remove once the issue is fixed.

The bounty manager account you are referring to was also active a few days ago. when you see he is still active in completing the spreadsheet which I see is not final yet. that means everything is not finished yet.
While waiting, you can actually go to the project's official Telegram account. look for the admin and ask whether the funds for the bounty campaign have been given to the bounty manager. because there are those who have provided bounty allocations from the start, but there are also project teams who send bounty payments themselves and wait for the final spreadsheet from the bounty manager.

You are correct; the account, after being inactive since November 10, 2023, was active again on November 23, 2023. Several colleagues have contacted PM via this forum, but there has been no response at all from BM.
I'm interested in taking part in the bounty again because I took part in the first bounty and no problems occurred; BM paid on time. It was my mistake to just believe that, but because this has happened, I can only accept this situation.  

Thank you for your advice. Indeed,  I was just looking for where there was the same problem, but maybe this is not correct. I will try to move it according to the provisions that apply. Once again, thank you for the correction to improve it in a better direction.

That's right, my friend, it does require more patience than usual, even though it seems like we have opened this opportunity to the Bounty Manager, but we don't know that until now there is nothing we can do anymore as long as BM is not active on Telegram. I, too, like you, don't want to be prejudiced against BM as long as there is no concrete evidence. I and other colleagues are just waiting until BM is active again on Telegram to open up about the problem.

Indeed, I have to admit that this is also a mistake that I may not have thought about until this far, but thank you for your advice that this is indeed the reality of what is happening, and there is no denying it other than having to wait and accept this reality.

Thanks again for the advice, and that's what I did. My first move was into the wrong room, and I changed it back to the right place.

My mistake was believing that the first bounty payment was done correctly by the bounty manager, and when BM made another bounty, I was also interested and always had a good opinion of BM, who had already paid, even though in the end it happened like this. But as long as there is no communication back with BM, I still hope there will be a bright spot that can happen.
 
But once again, I really appreciate your support in carrying out options that can be carried out as a follow-up, because it is for a better goal in the future. Once again, thank you, my friend, for providing moral assistance.

It could be that what you say is the truth, but it would be a good idea for me and several colleagues to open up opportunities for the Bounty Manager to be able to provide detailed explanations via telegram. Usually BM itself is always active in responding to every question we ask, but now this is no longer done.

There are two warning signs when participating in a bounty campaign and these are new bounty managers with no reputation to protect and no accountability and can scam exit when a huge amount landed in their wallet for distribution.

Second, no disclaimer and a lack of information about bounty distribution if the team is the one who will distribute the token or if the tokens are on escrow.

Based on the information you presented here the two signs are present here, if there is no announcement of the distribution or you don't hear anything from the bounty manager, you have the option to open a scam accusation, this is to prevent future bounty to land in their hands.
