Most of the ICOs are scam no doubt but it totally depends on your research about the ICO before you join their bounty.

The most ico is basically scam so being paid a lot in a good ico is mostly about luck. You should research more before joining in any kind of bounty

The only thing that still allows these scammers to exist is because the spreadsheets are always displayed and as such identity theft is high. If the spreadsheets can be hidden and opened once the bounty is over and stakes calculated for people to view their entries, I am sure this duplicates and scammers will be put to rest.

I agree that the Best way to not be scammed is to make your own quiet deep research of the project because you are also investing, not your money but your time and it is much more expensive. Or you can rely on the other's opinion and choose from different bounty and ICO portals.

I have already  heard many times about guys copiing reports and Accounts at bounty programs, but fortunately didn't saw them, or May be i didn't look attentively enough. Any way only bounty managers could do some thing against this kind of participants and of course we need to check Spreadsheets oursefl to find our clones and report to managers.

If you are referring to the services being a scam then, try to find a bounty running by TokenMarket, BountyPortal or reputable bounty managers on the forums but If you're speaking about the members impersonating other members then there isn't much that can be done here. If the manager is vigilant, that shouldn't affect the original participant in anyway.

I agree to this. In addition, you could also try to research on the project first before joining bounty campaigns. This will help you to know on whether or not the campaign is a scam. Also try on reporting the members who may be abusive for them to have a red trust.

I have been here at the forum for a while now.
I Was Active On Bounties.
However this is what happens.
Some or almost half of the Bounty Programs I joined, turns out to be a scam.
Some Members Even duplicate my credentials/reports and the worst part is,
Some attempted to KYC my bounty payment.

This experience is exhausting and frustrating.

You guys?
What do you think we can do to prevent or stop such scam projects or people that imitates us?
And what are your experience with them? and what did you do?

KYC your bounty doesn't necessarily mean that the project is scam. Many legit projects do that. If there are clones of your profile, well you need to deal with that. Also if you join scam bounty, I think it's only your mistake as you weren't able to make proper research

You can always tell the bounty manager is someone is impersonating you. There are a lot of scammers out there but if they don't succeed i think they will flourished if we will be vigilant.

to minimize bounty fraud should be analyzed ICO project before deciding to join the project, although there is still a scammer indictment but that is only a small possibility

Mostly it is very hard for us to know which bounties are scam so it is hard to know which ones are before the end of the campaign when they don't end up paying out. What we can do though is when we encounter such scam bounties then we should make sure to report them and put the word out there so that others will know not to sign up for these scam bounties.

Yes, they are a waste of our time, they don't have heart to those who get scammed. We should be careful on our private accounts, especially our passwords. It's very frustrating because we do our best to receive our own rewards, but they don't give that to us.

t is frustrating indeed to encounter a scam ICOs.  Basically we have complied all the rules to achieve such reward and ends up nothing. But I don't think we will stop doing bounties because of this.  For now,  the best thing to do is to be select the project well,  the project team and the bounty manager.

You cannot tell the bounty campaign is a scan right there and then. There are bounty campaigns that really is a scam but most of bounty campaigns here in the forum is legit. There are lots of reason why bounty campaigns cannot pay you because they have a cap for their tokens and maybe there are no investors invested on their tokens that they are promoting.

your fate is tragic.
this is a business that has no guarantee, so it is not certain you will be paid or not. my advice to know who bounty manager who already has track recor, please search digrup this. Just follow the bounty campaign. although this is not a guarantee but can minimize you avoid the scam project, because they must have dilakkukan project checks that they handle

Well it does not matter as long as that the eth address you had was right in the spreadsheet and not being changed as we all know that there are many people doing scam and that relatively going to do anything just to gain the tokens or the coins from you. We should expect that there are many cheaters in this unknown process or system. If only it is like facebook with pictures so that we can identify the real people behind the accounts.
Well thats the thing, the problem is. yes the original eth address and all other credentials are there.
But the problem is, specially if the bounty is around 3k+ participants. They cant check, if its the real one.
Think about that, a second(the fake one) with same credentials and different eth address.
it is possible if the manager wasnt able to identify the two. the fake one could earn stakes by just doing that.

Maybe you should not join every shit and expect a good return. In my oponion it`s the same as you invest in an ico. dyor before investing.
The good thing is you use no money for it. The bad thing is you put your time and work on it which is nevertheless money just on an other way.  Undecided

Thanks for the tip, and ill try to follow this managers. if i see some of their bounties.
And yeah i wish the managers are vigilant, but i cant blame them that much. cause of the volume of participants is quite hard to manage.
but yet its really annoying
If you're credentials are being duplicated and scams as well, i'm assuming you're doing bounties for TokenSuite. They're pretty lazy doing their jobs as campaign managers and consecutive scam bounties. Its reputation is decreasing every second, but i don't know why people still patronizes them.
That's because the participants are lazy as well. See bounties run by the TokenSuite are so dumb, even less post counts receive stakes. Doing your job untruthfullly (doing and d2ob less effort to do) lessens your job.
