I am a newbie just trying to grow on this platform. Within a week of participating in altcoin bounties, 2 bounties I participated in have been reported as Scammers. I get a lot of reads on my articles and Social media pages. I cannot keep encouraging people to invest in these altcoins if they would eventually get scammed. How can new bounty hunters like myself differentiate between a genuine bounty and scammers bounty?

I think the best you can do is too spread awareness of these bounty campaigns and if by any chance you encounter a decent campaign manager then you may want to continue following him/her. Legit and high paying bounties are often managed by high ranking and seasoned bounty manager. I myself follow certain good bounty managers like Sylon and there are many more out there that I'm sure you will discover.

Last time its heppent more and more. At first you must ckeck information about team and all project. Now there are a lot of projects that just collect money and disappear, it's very embarrassing to say, but the crypto-currency world is a wild field,

In the same way as you try to differentiate a good investment and a badly one. Working as a bounty hunter is an investment, not more not less. So search for informations from different sources to get an idea before to spend your time and energy.

I usually join bounties that are managed by trusted campaign managers and I find good bounties on web such as: https://bountylord.com/... and high rank on icobench!

If you encounter something fishy on project, you should avoid it. I am a bounty hunter and I studying the project for me to know if the project is promising or scam. Do not join to the project that doesn't have solid team and developers.

It will help only the experience and intuition that comes with it.
As a beginner, I would advise to participate in the campaign only known managers (there are not many of them on the forum and everyone knows them). Well, of course to delve into the materials of the project

You have to research extensively the project before join to any bounty campaign. Read whitepaper and observe their social media accounts. On the other hand, team members are one of the most important stuff for project. Research their past works, linkedin accounts, etc...

These are important steps to avoid from scam bounties.

To a large extent, the success of the entire project depends largely on the composition of the development team. All of them should have a great professional experience. It's a big plus if they all have active profiles on Facebook and LinkedIn.
We must make sure that each of them exists in reality. Check if there are videos or photos from the office or maybe a joint photo of the whole team.

When signing up to a bounty you have to realise that to get a profit you need the ICO to be successful and the token needs to go onto an exchange. If it falters any stage up to there your bounty tokens are rendered useless.

people are really disappointed about FAKE ICOs Bounties, so we should choose the bounty carefully. Before becoming a member of ICO, you must read the white paper and see whether the team behind the successful ICO is a competition team.

As you go along on your journey being a bounty hunter, you will master how to know if a campaign is good or just a fraud. For me, it is ok to experience that because you will learn and never repeat the same mistake again. Me also, I am no expert in choosing which campaign. I simply trust the campaign manager.

1) Use below mentioned websites to find the best bounty campaigns. These websites are publishing good ICO's and we can do that ICO's bounty campaigns.
www.icobench.com
www.icotracker.com
www.icodrops.com
2) After selecting ICO's from the above sites normally i read all the whitepapers to get the clear idea.
3) Then i read their road map and team members as well
4) Follow all the social media channels and join the telegram groups to know the updates
5) Get the ideas from Cryptocurrency experts
6) Do only projects from good bounty managers.

Sometimes the fake bounties are presented as a reliable projects and have a beautiful white papers, hence the respected crypto currency experts can't recognize the scammers. I think that the best way to detect a fake bounty is to look at the team conducting an ICO campaign. If they hide themselves, stay away from these bounties.

I think most of us in this Forum experienced that too *Fake Bounty Campaign, Failed promises,not paying Ontime ,Reducing the Budget,Sudden Changes in the rules after the Bounty is done like KYC requirements all of this Annoying experienced has a purpose simply to make us more aware that not all is true sometimes we must used our minds and instinct to determined what is true or false.

It's really hard to separate, for example Envion didn't pay the bounty Hunters. It's really hard to guess

Truly its a difficult one to say. Imagine working for months and at the end it becomes a scam that's heart breaking. However not that some of them have the intention to scam but may be their idea was not well passed to the public, leading to no much sales or hitting soft cap.

If bounty is a scam nothing can be done other than yes contemplating fate, and we work not paid anything by the scam ico

That is true. There are scam bounty campaigns and i also met several incidents like that. Further it is not easy to find a promising bounty campaign and i used to follow below mentioned procedure to identify the genuine bounty campaigns.

1) Use below mentioned websites to find the best bounty campaigns. These websites are publishing good ICO's and we can do that ICO's bounty campaigns.
www.icobench.com
www.icotracker.com
www.icodrops.com
2) After selecting ICO's from the above sites normally i read all the whitepapers to get the clear idea.
3) Then i read their road map and team members as well
4) Follow all the social media channels and join the telegram groups to know the updates
5) Get the ideas from Cryptocurrency experts
6) Do only projects from good bounty managers.

Just follow these method to identify the genuine bounties. These days there is a good bounty called "Egretia" and it is the world’s first HTML5 blockchain engine and platform. Specially newbies also can do the Egretia signature campaign and can receive free tokens. Further they have several bounty campaigns like social media campaigns, reddit campaigns and blog/article campaign as well. For more information you can visit their bounty thread - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bountyegretia-the-worlds-first-html-5-blockchain-engine-and-platform-3316735 and if you like you also can do that bounty campaigns.
