Frauds come in different ways in order to deceive people and in ICO projects are no exemptions in fact these ways are very rampant just to steal money from investors and run away long gone. What makes it sad is that bounty hunters are being used with these kind of people to spread false advertisements just to encourage investors to invest and what's left for us hunters are none and all the hard works are  not paid in the end.

very easy, keep up to date and the latest news about crypto currencies and blockchain by reading or participating in crypto seminars from trusted sources. do not be easily affected by negative issues or invitations to follow airdrop or bounty that do not have good structure and management.
To prevent fraud, you must be selective in using your wallet, because the contents of the wallet are a very valuable asset.
Then protect the maximum and caution against suspicious emails or when browsing suddenly crypto information appears. What is certain is that if you find anything suspicious, the internet is immediately closed and the computer or android restat.

There is no fixed formula to escape or prevent fraud because it always come in a new form. This is why it is recommended by every investor to stay alert and pay attention to small details especially the URLs they enter to avoid phishing. Also, investors must avoid being too greedy because fraud normally comes with enticing packages to make investors rich fast.
Well even if there is no fix formula for it but still GOD has blessed us with knowledge he has given us mind to decide what is right and what is wrong, so we can search about it on google and YouTube so we will be able to invest safely, I know there are so many scammers in market but we will have to be careful before investing don’t let them eat your profit.

for now, be careful and careful to choose the ICO project to be used as an investment place, because most ICOs are now deceptive. so don't ever choose a strange project

Agree, always careful when choosing ICO. But righ now many big exchanger launch IEO and i think its safest for us to invest IEO rather than ICO. Many ICOs having a good project and i think worth to invest, with current market condition i am prefer choosing IEO

No matter how careful you are, there will always be a risk, but in traditional markets, a lot of people encounter these situations. Manipulation and speculation are rarely penalized, and in particular small investors are often guided by false and false information in traditional markets. Whichever field you invest, you should be careful and think a lot.

Be more careful in investing, as we know that now there are so many people who are very passionate about investing and not doing calculations so that they actually don't benefit

After the IEO was born, I thought that scammers had no place to live. This is also a good sign and our investors are safe.
But anyway, we need to analyze the token's potential when deciding to buy it. otherwise, you can buy a garbage token that is no different from phishing tokens.

We can only avoid fraud, no need to trust the ICO project but have to learn in detail. If we can find out the smell of fraud then we can avoid it and we might be able to report to the bitcointalk moderator or we can enter the part of the reputation thread or meta thread if we have evidence if it is indeed a fraud.
well, jam, we also need to be careful before investing, because it is very difficult to avoid when you are more condemned investment than looking for information. don't be too interested in the benefits that can be obtained, but try to find the truth first.

It seems to me that the ICO project is the most famous way of fraud on the Internet, and it is very difficult to recognize it, and they improve their knowledge every day, and are improving

It is not arbitrary to invest and also see more of the fairness of the profits offered because a lot of people are easily fooled by this, which uses the attraction of huge profits that do not make sense
Well, I think putting huge profits into consideration before investing is not that bad, that what everyone will consider first before thinking of investing. What about the SCAM ICOs that would look so promising, even with fair profits ?

I think it’s just better to do a very good research on ICOs before investing, get reviews from old investors to be sure it’s a real ICO. This scam ICO have upgraded and it’s hard to tell the difference from genuine one, they would have all the features of genuine ICOs and maybe they know people run away from too high returns so they make it moderate to attract investors.

I guess fraudulent is not preventable but you can minimize being a victim if you will be very vigilant in your actions towards your investments. Doing more research before engaging to something which includes money will reduce the chances of being a victim of fraudulence.
fraud I think it has become part of the crypto currency because there is no legal force that protects it so we ourselves must be able to choose which ones produce and which ones are fraudulent

indeed, until now the fraud has not been removed from crypto. because indeed until now there has been no law that enforces the fraud is removed, and for those who commit the fraud will be punished, all of which have not been made and have not been established by law. so it's difficult to avoid a fraud.
this happens because there are still many who have not legalized cryptocurrency, so the government has not been able to make laws governing it, so this is like being a land for fraudsters
No it is not like this because with miner care and with help of knowledge we can prevent fraud, as we know scammers and cheaters are all around us but we will have to remain active and aware for investing or to select a coin, fraud only makes us suffer if we become careless while investing and saving, or we become careless about security check.

Fraud is anywhere as long as there are people who are not contented with what they have and those who wanted easy money for them. Even those jobs offered by company that are considered legal sometimes consider illegal activities. It is hard to detect fraud but one thing more common about them is the idea that they would offer something so impossible or too good to be true. You should be asking yourself what gains would both side get or why is the company or individual is offering such. If you detect something not so true you may then start to consider it as a fraud. Of course get a background check of the company and the people behind it.
Yes there are so many people who will read your mind and mostly those get lose and fraud who are greedy by nature and who are in search of anything which can make them rich faster, so investors should know when and where they will have to invest, before investing information gain is also important part to help yourself.

Be more careful in investing and not easy to believe without us doing research on investment products, usually they also offer considerable benefits and you have to ask about it, and also about their most important legality
Yes, I do agree with this reply. The most important is to check legality of the project if the team can show proof about the registration of the project to a certain country. As we all know that due to crypto demand the government has acted already towards adaptability and one of it is that crowdfunded project should be registered in a way that they could not run away and scam the investors in the process.

Yes right, do not rush to start investing at this time, because there are many fraudulent ICOs currently on their sales, so at this time I suggest investing in the IEO in Binance, because I believe the IEO is currently very safe.

Not that it's very safe (since the price of a token is determined by the market after it get listed and not the company) but it's safer than most ICO. IEO is still very new based on the recent hype it just received so investors hoping to use this type of crowdfunding should be careful as well because most exchange will only offer this service (hosting IEO) to make profit over quality.

The first step in preventing fraud is to be very skeptical on choosing the project you invest in either as a bounty hunter or investors and don't be too greedy in your judgement because if you get carried away with the ambition of getting Rich quick you will fall for scam activities, and also protect your personal information from pinching website's and software.
Yes right, do not rush to start investing at this time, because there are many fraudulent ICOs currently on their sales, so at this time I suggest investing in the IEO in Binance, because I believe the IEO is currently very safe.
IEO is the best alternative if you are into investment type of business, as there's chances that you'll be able to multiply your money in a short span of time, you just need to be more active reviewing each projects that has been offered around exchange who are catering the IEO process, binance already succeed with this and if I remember it right Bittrex is also catering such service so it's up to you to grab your opportunities.

Research and studies, investigation is the best thing to do before jumping on anything involving money.
This will keep you away from scammers and being attack by fraud.
Most people are looking for the fast earnings now without thinking the risk of it.
yeah, you're right. seeking information is very important. sometimes fraud is indeed hard to know. however, when you really find out about it, there will definitely be defects that you encounter in the project, or things they build.
For sure there are some scammers who are scamming and freaking people but to prevent it we will have to gain knowledge and information, which will reduce our risk and will help us to make money, we are in modern age anythi9ng is possible, gain knowledge and try to make good conversation with expert investors who can give you good advice.
The risk of fraud is a big threat with all people who are in crypto market and honestly, it's quite hard to prevent fraud in this giant market. Because one thing that we all know that the frauder or scammer are both professional these days. Everything which is related to the Internet all have a bad security as well. We may prepare something previously like knowledge, skill in order to get rid of fraud but we can avoid it completely. I've known many people who have a good knowledge, well-technique skill , but they couldn't avoid of being fraud.
