I think this is something we all yearn for: a sure way to detect scam ICO but as it stands now, I don't think there is that way. What we can do is to go by the already known ways; consider the team, the idea etc.
I will always say that before you invest, study the tean for quite some time. Don't just invest as soon as you are introduced to it.

To avoid these fraudulent ICOs, in my opinion you should update your in-depth knowledge, so that will be better for you, check out the roadmap, whitepaper, team. These are the essentials for evaluating a potential ICO
Yes, these tips will help you better select projects, but do not think that after that you will find some success.
Make proper analysis and select projects with strong community. That's it!
Scam percent of ICOs is extremely high, so it is essential to elaborate on your analysis!

As for me i would read as muchbas i can and understand whats that projects goes too,if theyre very active ICO's dont just beleive for any promosing projects their must be a valid proof for you to be fascinated.,be wise and alert all the time because there is nothing newcomers be scam if you were only vigilant.
Avoid high return and forward looking ICO with no track record of service or product they want to revolutionalize. ICO that gives to much bonuses a d unending bounty campaign is to be avoided as well!
Firstly you should research carefully about the ICOs, especially about the technical team, because no matter how good the idea is, if there are no good support then the project will go to dead end. Look at their white paper to see newly update information be trustful or not. Join their telegram project, ask admin all the question that you can ask to see the roadmap of the program.

To look for ICOs at the reliable platforms like: https://forico.io
But anyway make your own research before investing
You truly never can tell if an ico is 100% genuine or trick. It is simply a question of our intuition insightful choice to whom abundance supervisor are we going to give our trust to. Of course we have to do our own particular research, for example, perusing their whitepaper, visiting their site and checking the colleague's advancement foundation and some back ground to their project. Being trick is difficult to stay away from, it is just piece of the crypto business.
There isn't a sure way to avoid an ICO. The team can be good, a good whitepaper with a great proof of concept, yet the project can still fail or the team run away with the cashed raised. The best way to avoid ICO scam , is to not invest the amount you can't afford to lose. If you will invest in an ICO, ensure the company has existed offline for some number of years, and has a proven record of making a consistent profit before given them your hard earned cash.

I think it's impossible to protect yourself against 100% of scammers in the ico sphere. You can study the project, get acquainted with his team and advisers. But nothing will give confidence in these people.
Previous projects are also not an indicator. They can earn themselves a name, and then disappear with your money, selling you candy wrappers for ico.

We can't avoid scam in ICO because scammers are easily targeted innocent people. It means regulating authority is required for monitor all lisited project and if they will be found any irregularities then immediate take strong action on listed company and their representative.
You need to do plenty of research to verify the identities of the main personnel behind the ICO. check out all of their social media profiles all of which should be more than 12 months old with a lengthy relevant history behind them. Make sure the project whitepaper is both informative and rational, I have seen some terrible ones in my time. I am only looking at projects now with sensible token metrics, if possible an already working solution and previous successful business experience in the related field.
