Moreover, those spam bounties tend to open when coins don't get listed on exchanges.
Consequently, spammers have to download and install wallets on their devices.
It is another high risks.
Take risks, lots of risks, from red trust, banned, to lose money due to viruses in wallets, etc.
Generally, such spam campaigns are too risky, and don't worthy.

For estimated price for each participant, it is just estimation, and a little bit exaggerated.

Noticed that those spam bounties tend to use btt-bounty for their subchannel in Discord.
What is BTT? They named it, in the way only they understood.
Bitcointalk forum named as BTT in abbreviation. :V

Most of those Altcoin bounties won't even get you $10, simple because the tokens are worthless, low trading volume, no realiable exchanges, and so on.

The risk of getting tagged, wasting your time, and risking documents in kyc (for bounties and exchanges) is simple not worth.

Hustles that come quick with easy money are not advisable because the money at one time or the other vanish to tin air. Forum rules are strongly against spam Bounties| scam bounties, hope that; the usual is done to those accounts that are jointly involved in the alleged Spam bounties|Scam bounties. There's one obvious reason for spam bounties these days; which involve KYC before be able to claim the reward, which in the process they turn to be died before arrival.

I was deeply annoyed with these kinds of scheme where projects especially those in the ICO stage spams bounties and will ask the community members to participate with them by leaving a post and I really find it stupid, as well. These are some sort of marketing strategies and the project owners are taking advantage of the community and I am so happy to see the regulation implemented for this. Spamming bounties must not be tolerated and probably punishable which better.

Speaking on your topic, it's simple as saying easy come easy go. Money that comes easily such as promoting Scam tokens through bounty to help defraud others doesn't last long, that's the reason we have numerous scams carried out by the same set of individual those type of wealth won't make you rich if that's the reason for engaging in such act and if you partake in any scam bounty on forum you're liking to get red tagged as DT members frown against such act.

A person will not pay you for SCAM, I mean if he wants to pay why he does not do it legally, and showing payments publicly is another proof of the seriousness of the project.

Mostly, those who do this want to either distribute their shitcoins and thus give them some fame, or scammers try to profit in return for not paying anything.
Also, no one will try to help you if they find out that you have been scammed and are trying to scam others. "You are doing an illegal act."

You should report for such violations until they stop and not just warn them.

The worth of token in real life will be zero. By doing spam bounties you are acquiring zero value token and causing large number people to lose millions of dollars. In the end more distrust to crypto and that might cause further depreciation of your crypto assets.

In other words , it is way of self destruction.

Agreed. The rewards for this kind of task is extremely small, you won't even be able to buy enough food for 1 day with it. On top of that, the distribution usually takes months after the bounty is finished, so it's not really worth to do. You're wasting your time hoping your $1 tokens can make you become a millionaire in a few weeks or months.

I think you are mistaken here. I've never joined an altcoin bounty, but from what I've seen, the vast majority are either scams or collapse long before they reach an exchange or are worth anything. With the ones that do succeed in become listed somewhere, the bounty rewards are generally worth a couple of bucks, at best. Not to mention that some of these projects want you to go through KYC and send them your documents in return for your "rewards", and sending your identity to a complete stranger in return for a promise of a few worthless tokens is completely insane.

By breaking the forum rules, an account could/should get banned, be it temporarily or permanently. Nevertheless, the account should not really get red tagged for it, as forum rules infringement should take precedence operationally.

Although there is not uniform consensus on red tagging motives, and one DT could differ somewhat in criteria from another, the following is a comprehensive, albeit non-official, thread on leaving Trust feedback: [Infographic]: Guide on possible reasons to leave a -ve/+ve trust feedbacks.

Trust feedback can lead to getting red-tagged if performed by DT or, if you happen to have a Customized Trust Network, someone within it up to the depth level you have selected (default 2).

Not trivial to understand, but the operational side to it is: If you get banned, yo are so as a person (the ban extends to all your potential accounts), and should leave the forum for good. If you are red tagged, you may stay and post on the forum, but no campaign will take you on and trading on the forum will be a quimera.

DON'T JOIN SPAM BOUNTIES!

Some times, you might see some projects, that give away their coins in spam bounties.
Their targets are not strange, and the spam place is Bitcointalk.org forum.
They often give away coins for the first 20, 50, 100, or 250 people to visit their announcement topics and leave a post.
Post should be positive about their projects.
Next, bounty hunters - who are also spammers - have to post proof of their positive posts in Discord, concurrently with receiving addresses.

I recommend you don't do this, don't join those types of spam bounties.
Join them, you will obviously get quick, easy money. Sometimes you can luckily receive $10, $20, or $50, but those money does not help you richer!
Consequences of your participation in such campaigns are:
- Red trust as spammers to come.
- Temporary bans and permanent bans (if repeatedly violates forum rules by spamming and join boosting service).
- Risks of losing your money stored in your devices (because you have to install unknown wallet, that probably contains potential threats).
The more bitcointalk give-away bounties you join, the more odds for you to be tagged with red, or at worst, temp/ perma banned, or nuked.
Rules of forum that will be violated by such campaigns:

Smartly choose bounties to join is the best approach for bounty hunters.

I might update more images of  more bounties when I find them, or someone who see them can help by posting images here.

Thank you.
