To know is likely to be possible only when many will begin to share his investigation about the coin!
I agree, it is extremely difficult to determine the project Scam or not , I think do not waste time and think the project is associated with a Scam or not , I think better do bounty

The real options in order to really invest in projects that can be checked today is very difficult. Everything rests only on the correct analysis of the project, which today can not be done, all sorts of options are just options.

I often find airdrops like this, it's a pity if we have worked to promote their projects but when receiving distribution tokens they cannot be sold. the most important thing is you have to look at their community then check the admin on the project via telegram.

This can be very difficult. You should give up the airdrop mission because there is too much air inside. They won't give you any coins or they will give you some unknown coins. These coins will never go on the market. Perhaps only one of the 10,000 missions is true, such as XLM's KYC airdrop.

I do not like to participate in Airdrop, because most of them are frauds. If airdrop goes to the questioning of your personal information, then this is a fraud, and you should not continue it.

This TIP based only on my experience how to know if the airdrop is fake

Few months ago i encounter a fake airdrop using a TELEGRAM BOT.
An airdrop bot pretending as a real airdrop of a coin already listed on CMC

How i find out if they're scam or not?
First i search the name of coin on COINMARKETCAP from there i saw the legit website of that coin..
Second i search the TELEGRAM GROUP CHAT link from the WEBSITE of coin
Then i ask the ADMIN in TELEGRAM GROUP CHAT if the airdropbot i saw is legit or not and they said to me its not legit..the COIN that using airdropbot i encounter are using only the name of their coin.


Another FAKE AIRDROP i saw last month is BITAIR, BITAIR asking for selfdrop to buy their token
i search the BITAIR WEBSITE and i find it.i see the TWITTER account from there website
and i notice on there last post was november 2017 if im not mistaken, and bit air ico sale was ended last november.

Both of this type of airdrop are SCAM, I noticed they both collecting a member for their TELEGRAM CHANNEL and collecting FOLLOWER on their twitter account, And asking for selfdrop then dissapear after of ICO Sale.

I hope this post can help some NEWBIE to avoid to be a victim of airdrop with selfdrop SCAM SCHEME.

Any other tip on checking if airdrop is legit?

Well, basically newbies are more prone to airdrop joining since they have an unqualified rank, they cannot participate in the bounties. Also, they are newbies meaning to say, they cannot easily spot and filter out scam projects in the market.

What I can only tell is that they are fake if they manage to have thousands of Telegram members in just a few hours. It means that they have done this before and they know how to scam. Also, majority of airdrops were scams and just want to get info or ID's for KYC. You need to be aware on what you were joining or better yet, don't even think about joining as its not giving out high rewards. Its not worth the RISK.

That information is good to know if the airdrop is legit or fake. Doing research is best to know it by reviewing it and analyzing it you can create an Idea if it's legit or not. But you can know once the airdropairdrop is done.

Just check the official telegram of the project where you have joined their airdrops. If there are official announcement about the aidrops, then yhere is a chance that it will not be a fraud. But this trick will not work if the project itself is a scam so be careful still and read as much as possible especially with the projects' baaackground as well as the teams behind.

Most Airdrop and Selfdrop now are scammed, Also check the team if it is legit or just stolen images you can prove it by looking at their social media if there's any picture of the team if didn't see anything most likely a scam. Some airdrop doesn't even have a website very obvious of a scam occuring on that project.

for you to know if an airdrop is fake or you do not need to see how much you are earning here how high it is for you to know I'm right but when you see that your eye is so good that one day you have to wonder, you must also investigate your winnings if it is complete with requirements.

Do not need to learn such knowledge, please give up the airdrop mission. It is ignorant to waste time. We have missed the opportunity to make money by airdrop, so it is impossible to make money now. Choosing to learn and trade is the way to survive in the future.

I am only trusting the official announcements in the official social media of a project. If I see an Airdrop, I am entering the TG group and ask admins about this. If they approve it, feel free but in 70 percent of cases it is a scam.

when the tip given is looking suspicious and is giving creeps towards giving out bitcoin. I think the fake airdrop will come out eventually especially when its time to decide the truth of it. When the staff is unresponsive and delaying the distribition. there are also ones that gave out coins just to have something to dump shitcoins

I think its easy to spot a fake airdrop first of all you dont have to send any ethereum amount just to receive because airdrops are free so no payment is required also you can visit the website and look for team members other scam airdrops just fabricated some team members images to become more realistic but its a fake team beware of it.

Most airdrops aren't fake as you will recieve the airdrop tokens/coins but most of them don't have decent value compare to the effort and time wasted. Personally for me I dont look for airdrops

can't withdraw for any reason, then don't trust. if airdrop has provided a token that has been launched in the market exchange, you can trust it.
