But you have always the prerogative to stop and go somewhere if the bounties suddenly chance its payment scheme. So far though, I haven't been in a campaign that changes its payment. But it really hurts if the change of payment happens at the end you have put to much effort and at the end getting less than you expected.

I think it could be serious reputation on the bounty managers, specially if he has built enough trust in the community and probably maybe ruin by just one bounty he manages which suddenly change everything at the end.

That's the problem -- lot of people just don't want to change anything and they just can't quit the bounty. Because of greediness I believe.
If you see the bounty is scamming you just get an ice cream as a consolation prize and leave that crap project alone.

There is a possibility that there will be some bounty program that will scam bounty hunters at the end of the day so wisely choose those bounties which you think will pay.

In my experience so far, i can say 90% of bounty program is paying, only some litte bounty not paying becasue bad organized and they want only free advertising. But this is risk of my nob, because actually every kind of job has each risk.

Yep, some projects launch bounty programm, doing well on ICO, collecting money, and after succesfull ICO they think that bounty participants did nothing to pay them amount that was mentioned in the beginning.
And in my experience, all projects that did this way - they also did many things that stopped price rising.
They can gain profit themselves by selling/buying their tokens on exchanges using investors' money, but investors can have just a real small amount in the end. So if I see that there were some unclearnesses during the bounty - I dont buy coins of this project and recommend others to act same

Hi all!
I participated in MaxData project and they gave me 50 MXD bounty bonuses.
When the crowdsale begins, they will send me tokens.
Looks like they are trustworthy guys.
Did you hear about them? Or maybe someone already took part in bounty of MaxData? Let me know please.

There always a chance for manager and also the hunters to cheat, the worst part is who are being honest also got cheated. A project shouldn't change at the end of bounties because it will hurt the hunters, they already spent time and their money. So be respectful each other please.

Do you think that some bounty programs cheat because they do not want to pay bounty hunters by bringing out things to do at they end of bounty campaign? Share your thought or experience.

Met a hunter asking for prize rights but unacceptable because the hunter did damage to bounty by using multiple accounts, can not tolerate that trait we want to share fair for everyone who wants to get the gift and we want to share it equally for all successful people find us.
it is part of a message from a friend of mine and also a manager in this forum, and I so would not like it if there is a scam project in this forum.

I'm sure there are many that cheat to get away from making full payments but that's why you need to only do campaigns of trusted bounty managers as well as look into the campaign/company that you're promoting. 5 mins of your time could save you months of work for nothing.

Definitely a lot of bounties and airdrops cheat and scam the users. The same happens in many ICOs.

Nope, normally they pay the bounty if they are legitimate, because if not the communty would turn against them and damage their interest. The exception is pure scams.

Yes if they legit then they will pay but i think the problem is when they are not legit. They will change the rule of the bounty at the end of the crowdsale.
And if they are not legit, without changing everything they also will not pay the bounty.

I have experienced it FEW times,most of these new bounty campaigns will change the rules like at the end of the campaign they will require you to submit your IDs for the KYC verification but it should be made clear in the begining that people need KYC as many ppl are not comfortable giving KYC details.
Group Admin should clearly watch this and regulate cheating.

The stakes from disqualified people go to the qualified ones. How does the bounty manager or ICO profit?

YES there are different bounties and different managers who do not conscientiously act with their bounties and throw without paying them a job. But we must select more carefully therefore.

There is little chance of cheating in a popular bounty program!

It is recommended to find a popular reward program, and the reward manager will pay your token when you finish the work!

we've been through this many times, so many projects don't want to pay after they've raised a lot of money.

It's actually higher than 90%, i can say 95-98% because only 1 of 10 campaigns would turned into scam project.
You should DYOR in any of campaign you wanna join, to prevent getting scammed or foold by scammer.

I think you should pay attention to various attributes that can affect the results of bounty champaigns. one of which you can join a Bounty program with a well-known Bounty manager with a good level of trust.
