Yup, agreed. In any other walk of life unilaterally changing a contract and withholding pay after the work was done and the original contract fulfilled would be illegal. Unfortunately, these scammers will get away with it and no doubt disappear with their ICO funding just like almost every other ICO.
You are right to tag them.

Yes, you did right thing. Change bounty rules after end of bounty campaign they are cheating with peoples. In that case the team deserve negative feedback including BM unless he/she announce scam him self. Bounty managers should not support team if they ask to change rules after end of campaign.
If team try to force BM to change rules after end of campaign the he/she should announce them as a scammer, so perhaps we will know that MB isn't supporting team at least for scam hunters.

100% correct to tag the company and all accounts associated. The company and the manager agreed upon terms when releasing the bounty. They(the company) have 0 right to change the terms once the bounty is over.
If the manager knew they were gonna change the terms and said nothing, he should also be tagged.
Sad thing is the account is online right now but has not posted since March 9th. The ICO is over as well so they will likely just go about business as usual and pay no attention to the tags. We will see though.

Not a fan of bounties too but 28 weeks(7 months) of doing bounty tasks then you receive nothing because of last minute rule changes?
I would be mad too and feel scammed because I will have invested a lot of my time and internet for the tasks.
I think you are right to tag them. Bounty thread is locked and self-moderated. So we won't be able to see complaints in the thread.

Yes changing bounty rules afterwards is wrong. Bounty participants participant agreed to participate on the basis of earlier rules not the new ones.
You did right by going ahead and placing a negative feedback. Will support by placing mine on their profile as well.

I don't really know much about the bounty stuff , but this MENAPAY ICO came to attention after a member of the Arabic board asked about it
I am not a fan of this ICO thing at all, but thought i would do him a favor with a quick research so i found this accusation against Menapay ico.
after reading the full story, i came to check Menapay feedback and found nothing against them , the bounty thread was self-moderated with "(10 posts by 10 users deleted.)" so couldn't really count on it.
so i took a step further and visited their official telegram group, picked a random guy from the chat ( most of them were asking about the rewards and why is it taking so long) and he confirmed what's written in the article by publish0x.com team here > https://www.publish0x.com/bounty0x/menapay-transparency-report-xggyr
took another step and talked to the group admin and he admitted that they did change the rules after the bounty was finished, so while bounty hunters were waiting for their tokens, they expect them to go back and do more (NEW) work for them which is downloading their app and leaving a review for the app !
I have to say that i don't like all these bounty hunters as most of them spam to get some worthless coins/tokens, most of them do this shit with many accounts, but still some people must have put a lot of effort into this shit and they got scammed for their efforts.
I went ahead and tagged their account because I believe they scammed bounty hunters by changing the rules after the hunters finished their tasks, in an attempt to not pay the hunters.
i would like to hear community review on this.
