So my question is HOW CAN ONE KNOW REAL AIRDROP that will pay?

The real ones are those that don't require you to do any free online marketing for you to receive their worthless coins. Do some research online and you'll discover that the airdrop that have given the most profit are those that rewarded their early adopters or those using their platforms. We have the defi exchanges airdropping their governance tokens and others airdropping coins for holding a specific token etc.

I haven't heard of those that required you to tweets, retweet etc been much of a success and benefiting the participants. Coinmarketcap has some airdrop ongoing every weekday and the tasks are just too much then when the tokens gets distributed, you get just few dollars. This are the airdrop that are a waste of time.

I'd rather try to get into as many of them if possible to save time trying to think which one is good and which one is bad. Of course, using your main wallet would be a suicide. Use a fake address or if the airdrop require some transactions then just prepare some funds for that. You might lose some money doing that, but it's still better than losing all of your money.

Or just don't focus on them at all.

Airdrops supposed to be free, but some people will demand for VIP fee, they are scammers. You will pay them but they will never give you any airdrop coins. The coin is free, you should never pay anything, only scammers will request you to pay.

Avoid given out your email and personal information. If you want to give out your email, then open new email strictly only for airdrops. Be careful of the email messages, phishing links can be sent to you that can contain malware link or phishing link that will demand you to enter your seed phrase and all the coins that have ever been sent to the addresses the seed phrase control will be stolen.

Do not reveal your seed phrase and/or private key to anyone or anything, and never click on phishing emails.

Mostly, newbies to Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency at large participate more in Airdrops as a way of adding more coins to their bags but often times, they fall victim to scammers and fake airdrops.

I personally have not been participating that much in it because a couple of it I tried was scam or they will end up not giving me. But I noticed some of them are real and people benefit from them.

Real paid airdrops is usually have the specific condition to receive just like have some amount of tokens of the wallet, or have several transaction with the wallet so only the qualified wallet could win the airdrops.
Bad airdrops or scam airdrops is usually are effortless about making the airdrops event, they will just collect our information from filling google forms or something like that.

There are two problems affecting airdrops hunting, one is how to identify the good projects and two is will they ever pay? Airdrop hunting depends on luck because even if you find out which one looks reliable you won't know if they will pay or not

Let's clarify something first, the definition of an airdrop:
An airdrop is when a new project gives anyone its own coins for free. In other words all they are going to ask of you is your address and absolutely nothing else.

To answer your question now, you don't need to do much here. Just get their wallet, install it in a sandbox, generate an address and receive the free coins.

But for the past couple of years they are using the term "airdrop" wrong. When you have to sign up, give your Email address, post about the shitcoin on multiple platforms (advertise), do other kinds of work, ... then it no longer is an "airdrop" it is a job.
In which case you should not be paid in that coin anymore but instead you should ask to be paid in real money which is either fiat or bitcoin. To answer your question again, if they refused then it means it is not a good ~~airdrop~~ job.

I have three points to make.

1. If newbies are participating more in airdrops, that means they are starting it wrong. You said they're falling victims to scammers and fakes. What do you expect? They're newbies.

2. Coming from a newbie, your question is probably the wrong question to ask. Perhaps the questions coming from a newbie should be: "What is Bitcoin?", "How does it work?", "What are its revolutionary features?", "Why is it superior to the rest of the altcoins?", "How come it became this successful?", and more probing questions as follow ups.

3. As new as you are, you have already noticed that newbies are the ones participating in airdrops. That's right. An interesting question, however, is that, why are veterans and old-timers and OGs not the ones highly populating airdrops? Is it because they have already found out more or less that participating in airdrops are not only a waste of time but also inviting unnecessary risks?

Unless the project has legitimately good backing, you really can't know for sure. Hence why the strategy used to be just doing the 'shotgun' method where you get into as much airdrops as you can and just hope for the best. Airdrops has been pretty shitty for a while now though, projects has moved to airdropping tokens to their platform users and not social media spammers.
