Topic: Cheating in Bounties/Airdrops - page 7. (Read 1407 times)
That's why we have a Bounty manager to check all participants right? If those cheater slipped in the campaign then that manager isnt effective enough to handle the campaign. First of all, the manager should think ahead that many cheaters will try to join just to earn many tokens as possible. We have some apps or application to check those it only depends on the manager on how he will investigate and check it well. If you knew Tyler Sanford? He is one of the good bounty manager who really screened the participants well and those cheaters will have a hard time on doing their agendas. Im not vouching for him, I just set him as an example on how cheaters going down in a campaign.
I have been a victim of this kind of scheme with many bounties on which I also participated...now am sure that my details might have been used with other bounties which I was not a part of. Whenever I am aware of someone using my details, I make sure that I reported the same to the bounty manager for proper action as this is something we should never tolerate not an iota. Good thing to see that there are now many bounties which is making sure that no fake can enter its program so they inspect all applicants and kick out those who are abusing the system. We must always be careful with these scammers as they can really be using our identity for their own purposes.
it is true that today many cheats are wandering around, using other people's names to get their prizes.
I've also experienced the same thing, my name is used to follow the social media bounty, and eth is used instead of my eth.
this made me very disappointed, they got a prize with our name

cheating campaigns by stealing profile links such as bitcointalk accounts, facebook, twitter and other more often occur, even content campaigns such as blogs are often rigged by some people who like to steal their work. really sad and difficult to eradicate it. maybe we should put the btc or eth address in our bitcointalk account profile and always report directly to the manager if we find a fraud.
With the growing security issues in BTC can't we start Google 2 factor authentication for our profile as it also has been attacked ~
BCT forum has the secret question and mail verification for securing accounts. I think this is enough. Just keep your email safe and everything will be ok.
~ what can be the solution to these kind of scammers ?
I think bounty managers can easily notice that. If he/she is a good bounty manager, he/she can reject all of scammers like these in just few clicks.
But I think we should check speardsheet weekly by searching our own information in our following campaign, in order to report scammers promptly.
Hi,
I am a bounty hunter and i have realized that almost all the bounties are being flooded by some morons who use one person's BTC id, other person's fb/twitter, and put their own ERC address.
They may be using some kind of bots to do that.
What i think he/they are doing is that they have made a list of btc address, fb address, twitter address, and telegram and then use them in bounties and airdrops. They have made some kind of automation software that now do it for them and they take up all the spots in the Airdrops, bounties etc.
They just flood them, put their own ERC20 entries in them while using other's address.
With that they don't have to worry because their ERC address can't be traced to their identity as the rest of the info is all fake.
I have found my BTC id used at quiet a few bounties now which i never applied. Same with my twitter and fb address.
I know that a few bounties are now asking for proof of authentication post but not all of them.

A lot of managers have realized this case and some of them applied KYC and others bounty managers that didn't put KYC as requirements tried to implement the new method of registration just like creating a verification post that can be your evidence if you have registered on that campaign.

that way the task of the bounty manager gets heavier because they cannot find fraudulent accounts one by one, and for participants who honestly do bounties, it is certainly less fun

That is why you also might want to consider a good campaign manager that can spot those cheaters and prevent scammers from flooding the campaigns. That's also why it's better to use some platforms that connect your real account to the bounty hunter. In this way it can avoid duplications which somehow the easiest thing to copy when the campaign management is only using manual method.

If people were cheating the campaigns with fake profiles then it is the fault of the campaign managers so they need to do their work if this kind of scammers need to be removed as you mentioned the proof of authentication will do the job but it willl make little bit of work load for the campaign managers that is why they still refusing to add while the most reputed campaign managers doing that.

Cheating by scammer is now gradually being curbed by some bounty, through the introduction of KYC and for some, proof of authentication. Although, i feel proof of authentication is more appropriate than KYC, because not everyone can pass KYC.
Although, to avoid cheating the sincere bounty hunters too, KYC should have been completed before the calculation of stakes to tokens or before token distribution. So that there will be fair and accurate distribution of the total number of tokens to
sincere bounty participants.
