Related to the number of airdrop program, before joining make sure first that the project actually held an airdrop program with asking via official telegram or social media. It's a very precise preventive action. One more thing, avoid the airdrop program that requires sending some money to get it.
In my years of experience with bitcoin there is only one effective way to avoid scammers. In joining ICO even if you do your research you will not know that they are scammers until the ICO is over. Even if how many preparations we do or make in the end we still end up being a victim to scammers. The best way to avoid scammers is to no invest your bitcoins. Just hold it in your wallet and hold it for a long time and when the price is right you can sell them and you will have a good profit.
the best way in this case is to take risks ..bitcoin because of the large group community as well as other ICO projects ..
here's my way to invest:
1. avoid investing outside the bitcointalk.org forum
2. start investing on coins / tokens that are already available in the top 100 coinmarketcap.com
3. if you succeed at the second point you can start to invest in ICO.
4. ICO analysis:
a. read wp and roadmap
b. identify the team and its advisors whether it is a real account or not.
c. see the community and interests of bounty hunters in the forum or in the telegram group.
d. admin is on
f. social media is always updated.
g. reasonable allocation of funds.

I personally dont participate in many of them, so I have less risk of scam, but I always study project hard, ask devs a questions and then only join.
I notice that lots of people whom I dont know are sending message to me in telegram.I have read lots of comments here in forum that never give your email address or anything to someone and I did follow their advice to be safe and secured.Lots of people are sending messages in telegram and said they are an admin but every platform I joined I read first the pinned messages and it said that beware of scammers because admin will never give personal messages unless you plead to them.So thats something suspicious why I received messages and told me that he/she will give a helping hand and propose something, so its very unusual right.The best way to protect yourself to scammers is be aware of everything.Never trust anyone easily and lastly try to read more in this forum like what I did coz its really a big help coz you will learn lots of ideas and can help you for all your decisions whether your doing right or not.
Scammers are everywhere so I don't show my password in social site and I should be protected it
