If you find a Project or ICO that looks scammy, what steps do you take to warn the community? Do you just ignore and go on to the next one?

If i find ICO that looks scammy, i inform all my friends about it, i write about this in Telegram groups, and also on the forum. I don't like when deceived people, so i'm making maximum effort to warn colleagues of the danger.

I haven' informed yet and haven't warned anyone! I haven't got a lot of experience and I cannot tell straight away, whether the project is scam! Right now I have a few projects, that I think are scam and I'am still working on them, because I am not sure whether they are scam! Anyway once I get enough experience, I would definitely inform people!
The project's that I work on and pretty sure they are scam are AGT - Social Media Platform on the Blockchain by Argent, CryptoPuppies.Land not quite sure, but likely and Xandracoin (facebook campaign)- Ultra-Fast Decentralized Digital Currency Bounty campaign! Xandracoin launched facebook campaign and after first week, they written in the thread, that facebook campaign is finished! I suppose I should get stakes for my first week work and I asked them whether I will get my stakes for the first week and I get no replies! In their Telegram group, I can only participate, but can't ask a questions! I'am not very worried, but it's quite upsetting and I think it's disrespect to us (bounty hunters).
Well that's all for now and I hope we get less scam projects! Good luck to us and our projects

I sit in different Telegram groups. We are like one big community. So yes, if i find scum i will tell them. And they will do the same) After a few members write articles about scummed ICO to let all people know

However, that our community is large enough, very many abuse some advantages. But there's nothing to be done, because it's the world that everyone is trying to survive in their own way.

i think there are many cases that even when we know that ICO is a scam, it is still not easy for us to convince people to believe in what we said, however we have the responsibillity to protect ourself and community from negative effects of ICOs, reporting to Everybody in this Forum is the way we can do to warn people about the ICO, showing evidences or telling it to Media pages like Telegram or Twitter, they may don't have much result but at least we can warn some investors careful with their investment.

It's a little tricky to report a scam, because of a lot of things. Mainly, because this is your own oppinion regarding a given project. For me, it is better not to report a scam, but to write in the forum regarding what you think is scam in a project and to debate it with the other participants in the forum. You cannot always know everything and in the end something that looks scam in the beginning, in the end could happend to be the new best thing...

I a usually report the scammers in moderators,but i am posting in the relevant thread discussion about how these scammers are doing or what is their identity,so people will be able to know how these scammers planning to scam a lot of newbies in bitcointalk,especially when an ICO is a scam,or even the bounties some of these are scammers.

Yes, I just take it and move on to another company, since there's no point in screaming that the company is bad and should not join in. Each member has his own head on his shoulders and he decides what he needs to do!

Thing is, bitcointalk is full of scams meanwhile. Everyone and their mom are creating premined tokens left and right. We need to find a way to avoid distraction from the actually interesting information.

How we can make sure wheater the project is really scam or not? How if wea are wrong to say scam to legit project? It can kill the project itself.
If i know how to make sure it, i will not go to the next one directly, first i warn my friend not to invest then this forum at the second.

so it's better if you rank high with the bounty campaign they run because they are sure and for sure it's not a scam so it's best to choose the best ico, especially for ico investors.

It is also a must to report when a bounty campaign and an affair are also the people here that promote their business and the value of their tokens.

Of course information like this must be spread out of the public to help friends and decrease criminality, so sad if there are much victims. And after you have much proof and you have to report it. Think how much people you sav.

Where do you report scams? Which authorities? Governments don't look out for them. They just ban them all if they want.
It cost too much to investigate all projects. Who will fund this? Everybody should make their own research.

I told others not to go into the project and I tried to learn it first so that later to know the project is just deceiving. or I just ignore it.

this is not in silence if I find it I immediately report it to the moderator and write in the thread to be read by the community about the project or the ICO scam
