how to distinguish a 100% ICO scam?
many times I've been victimized by a scam
Frequently victimizing conflict is, investment, bounty and signature
I just wasted my time with such things. Maybe they will change. but they probably have changed because they have a lot of money that they can afford
I see that they are not satisfied with such activities.
how are we lending to earn?
I can only say one thing
If you’ve only ever met online, you need to take extra precautions to protect yourself. Don’t let scammers take advantage of your better nature and steal your money.
Calls, emails and other approaches claiming that you have won an unexpected prize or a competition you did not enter are almost always scams.

In my opinion the most important is not to follow unknown links and go to exchanges and wallets only on reliable links. I had a situation when I went to blockchain info, and ended up on a phishing site. Bitcoins immediately left the wallet.

Yes! I was scam once by email scammers. I thought it was a news Letter but I'm wrong, later on I noticed my coin lost in my wallet. Grrr! I'll never forget those days.
No, Im not but Im doing my best to not encounter that thing or not to be scammed. Scammers are everywhere nowadays but we should have to be alert and be smart enough to avoid that kind of a situation.

Yeah i have been a victim of a scam once , when i am new in the cryptocurrency. I invest in an ICO and because of my curiosity that is why i spend money through it. And eventually i wake up one morning knowing that my money is gone , my invesment is gone. Its the first time that i have been scam. In that situation i learn a lot from it. Now i never invest in any ICO unless i guaranteed myself not to be scam again.

There's this site sierrahash.com that introduced me into mining so I invested 500$ , 3days passed and I earned the 500$ that I invested , after that the site vanished and I never reached that site again
still not scammed but i think it is inevitable, as scams get more and more elaborate
Yes i am a victim of scam.I joined on then on the bounty I do their instructions but after it end no payment are rewarded on my wallet.
I was scammed by some bounty campaigns here as they didn't paid the participants after the campaign ended... 
It was so enticing as they were giving bitcoins as reward but after the campaign, no payout was given.
It was an experience for me.

I am very carefully studying the projects of ICO in order not to give money to scammers. Also, I carefully look at the website address to not enter my password on the phishing site. Scammers find it hard to catch me.
Yes been a vitcim of ponzi scheme i am talking about MMM, GHW, MMMUNITED, coinr, lara and many more of them but that was when i was a novice in crypto. recently i have been scam by pump and dump trading channels. they will announce a coin. you will buy they will leave market the coin will crash. it will take month to climb again. I have learn that too. I am learning everyday.
Yes i been a victim of scam accusations and that's why i become stronger that before but after gaining knowledge from this people. i get smarter and invest my money wisely but before investing i make sure that i read a lot in whitepaper
I also have experience about Scam you mean .. but I am just a victim of a bounty scam. Not a victim of a coin investment scam .. then I followed the bounty of a project that has been said a big success but the project owner was blurred and no clarity about what I do and not in pay .. it is very disappointing but I am sincere ..
this is very in a common that we have to be more careful of it yes we cant say of who have the possibility to be scammed for but we all know that this is common to happen for and we see a lot of people may suffering i dont think that it may be one of the lesson to be learned for but we must have to be more careful for everything. 
my 85.000 $GRS would be worth around 150.000 $usd today i guess. But mintpal took it all and then went bankrupt. Also cryptorush and all my $UNO. well you give some you get some. It is water under the bridge. Happened a couple of years ago. Lesson learned - Never store your coins at the exchanges.
