You have to study first the ICO project carefully, the bounty is linked to the project, so studying the project will show you if it is serious with some potential or just another scam. The whitepaper, the team, the concept, the product, the website, all these factors can show you if the ICO is legitimate or not.
The bounty depends on ICO so if the project is scam then be it the bounty, better to have check carefully the ICO project as well the team. The bounty comes after if the bounty seems to have good rewards too.

all scam bounties also have what you mean. . .
but for the latest team scams like this link https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/endochain-fake-team-scam-5041008. it's hard to guess a scam bounty

Exactly, it is very hard to find the scam bounties because sometimes a good manager will start promoting the good bounty. At last after crowdsale, there won't be any development happening what they mentioned in the roadmap.

it is true, bro, which I often experience like that, and I am sometimes disappointed because the first and ultimately not what we expect

that's true and several times a scam project like that can be missed and accepted by the gift manager. they are very professional and manipulate to look very perfect and promising, so everyone is easily attracted and deceived.

There are many other signs showing you that the project is a scam. They can offer a good secured website, and a whitepaper not detailed nor professional, and a fake team, and without a real product. So you have to check carefully these things too, and make sure the team is also verified and experienced.

I think I can add some conditions!
1. The Bounty Manager is also important (this means that your bet can be effectively and on time)
2. There are no updates to social media (no updates for a long time)
3. The group is not active (for example, there is no activity person in the telegram to communicate with others, etc.)

Guys look out for this kind of crap :
Quote
" If the total number of stakes earned during campaign exceeds the cap, we will adjust your stakes based on the following formula:
 Your final number of Tokens =  (Bounty campaign pool / Total number of stakes everyone earned during the campaign) * Number of stakes you earned .If not, 1 stake = 1 Eloncity Token (ECT)"

This is how they try to scam us of doing their campaigns for free.
* almost free for peanuts

Even with the registration of .com domain we may find the scam and with white paper also you will be able to find the scam projects for sure.

I really do not understand that why people not going into scam accusation section to see the reported scam projects and pinned threads on that section. It will be more helpful for the people whoever looking to make themselves good in find the ICO bounty projects.

Hello guys, i'll give u tips for check if the bounty project is scam before u join it
this is not 100% right

1. No whitepaper on that project
2. Website with free domain [example .fa/.ga/ml]
3. Social media not real ( twitter only retweet other  member twitter post)
4. Reward too big ( example :1500$ / week  on social media )program
5. Reply on project only under 100 or 50



2,3,4 is a definitely big RED flags.
-Also social media which is not active at all is red flag.
-If you cant find the company in the registry of the according country.
-The business model" buy or tokens, we will give you some profit each month"
-The neglect of KYC.
-Asking for KYC from bounty hunter without legit KYC company.

I believe everyone in this forum has a lot of sense to detect ICOs, especially those that will lead to scams. But it would be nice for everyone from you who will take part in the program bounty or you are an ICO investor when you have finished making a research you will be good also to create a thread in this forum. You can tell legit projects like in the altcoin announchement section or for a scam project you can report in the scam accusation section. In this way it will make a belief for anyone who is a bounty hunter or ICO investor, or at least will make him calm with the money he has spent.

If the ICO project looks scammy or suspicious than avoid participating in its bounty campaigns. For this, you have to study carefully the ICO project itself, and making your own research about it. The good projects have a good website with a detailed whitepaper, verified and experienced team, and attractive concept.

but sometimes I myself agree with number 4 which I often experience following a bounty which is a big allocation but a scam or fraud that makes me not enthusiastic anymore.

I agree with your opinion, bro, with prizes that are too big but ultimately a scam, that makes me disappointed and there is no whitpaper that I am very suspicious of with a scam project.
Yes, bro, so now the Bounty is mostly nothing serious and has a lot of fraud, now the smart scammer devises a strategy for the bounty to be better and better and finally a scam.

All right! But still need to look at the team. If there is no team on the site, then the project is likely fraudulent

There isn't just a 100% way to find out whether the project isn't a scam. There are real team distributed their tokens and yet they dumped all the tokens they got before the ICO and then abandoned the project. Let this be a reminder to the people who invested on ETHD. Those who thought investing on projects that were listed already on exchanges are still not safe from being scammed.

I see your tips are not quite right, because there are scam projects they do very sophisticated, and I was scammed by of the  ico projects very professional.
We can not know in advance exactly the projects scam in this market, when it's all on paper and there's no real application

That's a helpful tips I may say its true as of my experience. I may also share some tips that i noticed on a scam bounty campaigns. These are
- they have unsecured website.
- they have few participants
- no any updates
- the bounty managers are not active and so are the support team
- Unorganized and unprofessional ANN thread
- not so strick in posting



That's a good tip, but not all scam projects like that, because sometimes scam projects are neatly organized and organized, so it's not all that expensive, but basically the tip above is the first thing you should see.
