I am sure that the regulation of ICO at the legislative level will protect investors from fraudulent projects. Before allowing projects to start selling tokens, they will be checked for compliance. In addition, security tokens will gain popularity in 2019, which will also make ICO more secure.

To be honest, I keep myself away from these ICO's because believe it or not more than 95% of them out there are mere scams. The promise a lot of things on their site, whitepaper and roadmap but fail miserably when it comes to delivery. Just like me many have already burnt their hands and that's the reason why many do not welcome any more ICO's in their portfolio anymore.
Invest a lot of time in researching these projects and trying to understand if all of them are legit. It is not so easy, but after several researches, you would be able to detect a scam ICO every time simply by reading its whitepaper.
I believe that we need to create an independent rating of ICO projects on this forum in order to replenish the list of projects on a daily basis and add to the black list of scams. We must take care of our own security and warn others about it. Only together we can achieve fair conditions from ICO and secure our funds.
I think, it very difficult to Avoid ico scam. experience is good way to avoid ICO scam. before investment any ICO , you needed deep research about the project. if you have proper knowledge about ICO you can easily avoid ICo scam. so you should be careful before joining any projects.
Soon all of ICOs will be regulated and safe because regulations are coming. But is that good? We all want to be safe but without freedom?
I am sure that the regulation of ICO at the legislative level will protect investors from fraudulent projects. Before allowing projects to start selling tokens, they will be checked for compliance. In addition, security tokens will gain popularity in 2019, which will also make ICO more secure.
if in my opinion it is rather difficult to avoid it because it must have expertise about the project, read in the whitepaper. But the average person gives advice to read the website, whitepaper, etc.
Scam bounty campaign, ico project having no real team . The scams project always arrange in fake management team members. Fake website and white paper and roadmap.
There is no 100 percent guarantee to avoid scamming ICO projects, these days, there are a plenty of them, they behave like genuine and there are no difference of them. You can research well before joining these projects, but there is no guarantee that they wouldn't turned out to be a scam.
Simply, do not invest into ICOs.

This is a difficult question . We should invest a lot of knowledge about crypto, analyze each item in the whitepaper, investigate the project team to minimize the risk of investment. It is difficult to detect signs of scam in projects.
