Topic: Enough of bounty scam, you can help to stop it too. - page 4. (Read 2593 times)

But some reputed members escrow the tokens for bounty hunters. Like Julerz, Murat. I saw many bounties that julerz holding the tokens. A few days ago saw that Ledu project scammed Murat & they didn't pay him. Murat stopped the bounty campaign and sent the LEDU tokens that he was holding for bounty hunters, even he paid the GAS fees. Actually, if you join reputed managers bounty there is 90% hope that you will not get scammed.

The performance of a manager is seen in updating the spreadsheet table every week as well as in how to serve all questions from bounty participants, whether the bounty case is good or not, I think it depends on the project team's performance not on the performance of a manager, because between the team and the manager their duties are different.

Being listed in exchanges don't give you any guarantee of a project going to be successful there ate numerous projects that had been listed in exchanges while running bounty Campaigns but still ended up as scam one of the most recent example is YAM project. It was one of those projects that came out from nowhere and reached it peak, but eventually scam exit after getting money from investors.

It will still be a scam at the end of the road if it is planned by new projects, I did research a lot of new projects and they were well rated. But in the end the price collapsed or was never listed on exchanges. You should better opt for the bounty listed at the exchange

research also does not necessarily make you safe from bounty scams, do you have a good way of research ?, i
n the current situation the project is very difficult to distinguish, the safest way besides research is to follow a project from Binance, I'm sure you will be safe,
but project in binance always doesnt have a bounty program

I felt bad when my friend joined a bounty called NODEToken and joined a signature campaign. It was good pay for the person like 100,000 tokens. But things started to turn ugly when the Telegram group of the said campaign said that the bounty hunters will need to wait until the selling of token is over before it will be put into an exchange. They waited 2 years with very few updates from the said campaign. When he followed up, the so called group managers said that the project failed and they are starting anew. So much for these fake companies.

I prefer to post this here on this section because this is where it actually originates from. This is where the bounty scammers come to catch their "prey"- hunters.

Therefore, I have observed that since 2018, after the 2017 crypto bull , almost all bounty have been failing. After months of running bounty, some that manage to get to the exchange are dead on arrival with less than a dollar worth of 20,000 unit (or more unit) of shit distribution to hunters.

Consequently , with my little time here and as far as I have noticed, their are certain signs that seem like a no go area if we really want to participate in a fairly good bounty that we can also benefit from our labour, time and data.

These signs for me are :
1. When the thread is filled with grammatical and typographical errors.

2. When the task in the different or any of the allocated bounties are not defined. For example, how many facebook shares / posts are not defined and then you are left with asking from the shit BM. This is definitely and certainly a red light.

3. When the task is limitless. For example, no limit to shares/post.

4. When the task is too much. For example, 10 shares  

5. When the requirements to get your reward is complicated. For example, you can be asked to sign up and provide referral number or code  

6. When the process for reward isn't proper. For example, you notice you will be asked to watch a video to know how to provide wallet address or downlines  

7. When spreadsheet isn't updated weekly.... Just run  

8. When weekly dates are not seen either on the thread or spreadsheet.

9. When you see only week 1 , week 2, week 3 etc just on spreadsheet without date.

10. When complaints on telegram isn't responded to promptly and you are not satisfied when you get response.

11. You don't need to continue if you notice you have been deleted from telegram and you know you have been asking legitimate questions to understand things not clear to you about the bounty.... Run run fast  

12. When it is not handled by a reputable account as BM.

13. When there is no ANN at the beginning or it is provided later in the bounty maybe because someone is consistently requesting for it.

These are some signs I can remember and I know they are negative signs for you not to be paid after you do your part most times.

*** These signs are ; apart from whitepaper typographical mistakes and plagiarism  

If we go with these signs and not sign up with a bounty you suspect could be scam, then the bounty will have less participants and with time, we can clear these scamming bounties out from this forum.

Each one tell all. You don't need to join suspected scam bounty.

I hope this thread will help bounty hunters.

I would suggest that if you want to avoid joining several scam bounty try to have a research first of the project/bounty that you are joining so that you have the confident to either join or not to join those bounty campaign. Just read the reviews and do your research so that it will not waste your time and effort and you will gain the rightful rewards.

research will be the key for us to find good project, dont ever be lazy to open project document that available in site . it will help us to identify is it good project or scam project. it only take few time if we serious and focus analize this document, and also we took advantages from doing this , our knowledge will improved well

After 2017, it has just increased only and reason is everyone wants fast and easy money. So though to pick this as an opporunity and try to scam people who ever fals in trap is better fr them and will make some money qucikly and go away.

It's like a box of chocolate you never know what you are going to get, bounty hunting is like a guessing game a lot of my friends stopped doing bounty campaign one of my friends have done over a year of bounty hunting and over 80% are scams or did not send payment.

Bounties do not depend entirely on luck and proper analysis has proven that you can join a good bounty. It cannot be denied, that the value of the coin is below average and don't be sad to sell it immediately because it is likely that the value of the coin will drop drastically.
