This is a very nice initiative but you forgot the most important one common sense and logic, if it's to good to true then it's false. People often fall for those catchy ads and fake generators saying they'll get one btc or they fall to simple tricks like giving away their seed and password which is so dumb. I hope you can add common sense and logic also to your list.
Thank you for sharing that wonderful statement of yours and I hope it will come to handy someday.
It is true that there are a lot of ICO who are just scam, but in my experience in cryptocurrency what I do is to avoid scam is to buy it when it is already available in the market, ICO phase is something I don't trust completely and this is my way of protecting myself to some scamming incidence.
