Now scammers are becoming lazy, so first of all you need to check the fake team. If this is all good, then check the physical location of the company.

As a new investor, my advice to you is to stay away from ICOs for now and invest only in coins that are already listed on the market because your chances of being scammed is very high. You may decide to go into ICO investment after you are well grounded in crypto investment.
I think that the organizers of the project do not know will be they scammers or not. It is important to understand that people are deceived because of the bad situation in the market. Many projects cannot pay salaries to their employees. But seriously you need to do a thorough analysis of the project.
right, but sometimes it actually pity them, because they are directly confronted with investors, so they are the first to come in contact with investors. but at least a good project organizer will handle a good project, even though it is not guaranteed 
Do not invest in ICO. 2 years lasted the era of ICO and it ended. Now it is a new era - IEO. At the moment, you can buy coins on well-known exchanges under this scheme. It took a little time and now all the exchanges are true.

Checking ICO scam or not is difficult, but we can see it from the project's whitepaper, and the team behind it
I dont think that simple, many scam ICOs have good whitepapers but mostly have fake developers team. Whitepaper is not the only factor to determine the project are legit, i think the developers team behind is the main factor to project run
sometimes we have run uh it turns out the project is a scam, it might happen often.
Until now, I did not understand how to find out if the project was fraudulent. a project that is good or impossible we can understand by reading the project's vision and mission or can know who the team is whether the team can develop well or not.
There is only one thing to distinguish if the ICO is scam or not by reviewing its platsform. If its platforms was clear and gives enough good feedback then its not a scam but if its not better look another bounties to be join of like the dencoin tokens which promoted a holders to buy sell and to trade tokens.
