It is really hard to detect scammed bounty campaign. After completing all the requirements to be able to get accepted in a bounty campaign, spending much time to participate in forums and not to mention carrying their banners, completing all the tasks and reports then all of a sudden you will just find out that you have been scammed already. luckily I am not the only one but to think all participants did the same efforts as well as you did. But it is really happening, lesson learned and could be just charge it to experience and move on. If we could only find out at early stage if we were in to scam or a legit bounty campaign. Who would really know anyway?
yes its hard, there is no one who can tell that a certain bounty campaign will be a scam in the end or it would be successful in the end. you can only know their intention base on the information given to the public and its community.

Yes, in many ways I agree with you, now it's really hard to choose a reliable bounty program. But if you want, you can find a suitable and reliable project. But for this you need to conduct a thorough research, check the site, the development team and the technology of the project.
Yes it is difficult, it requires attention, study, it takes your time, but it is possible. And the more experienced you become the higher the chance that you will be able to identify the scam project
I totatly agree with you. Cyrptocurrency is indemand and popular for the past year. Thats why many company are trying to make their own tokens or blockchain. And because of that many bounty campaign are being used to scam people. In my experienced i make it a point that i join bounty campaign with bounty manager that are established already. Because they are more strict in choosing which campaign is better or not a scam. They usually filtered company thay wants to be managed by them.
To avoid this problem, use a diversification strategy. Choose companies from successful managers who have already established themselves. The more companies you choose to participate, the greater the chance to earn.

I think there is a good way to avoid these scams effectively. That is to see if there are enough real members in the telegram group of this project. I have never joined a telegram group with very few members and a telegram group full of robots. Especially for the telegram group full of bots, it is difficult for you to communicate effectively with other members.
It is almost impossible to know a scam project from the beginning,most look quite attractive at the beginning,but turn out not to be at the end.. But I think the best we can do is to closely scrutinize the team,the project,read the white paper critically.Check out for the designs of the website.You can also try choosing a tusted bounty manager like amazik,arteezy etc... I think the rest could be left to fate
For me, I look critically at all the parameters of the ICO such as team, product, MVP (if available). I even read their white paper and consider it's quality. If the quality is poor, I stay away from it. I see myself as an investor. Though I'm not investing money in it, I'm investing my time to promote it.
It's true, choosing a good project for investing or participating in a bounty campaign has always been difficult. But it is quite possible, if you have experience, and you can correctly take into account a set of factors when choosing a bounty campaign. Everyone makes mistakes and everywhere there is a risk, the main thing is never give up and take the failure as a lesson.
Now these fraudsters are becoming more and more hidden. Even if we seriously distinguish the bounty missions, it is difficult to determine that the mission will succeed!

It may seems hard and all that. But it can be easily detected by firstly looking on designs of website , if there is developers and whole team behind them. There is also community/social media. Sale phases are not so necessary indicator and there is also crucial roadmaps and maybe some presentations with white paper. That would be it.
Now the companies have learned to deceive the participants of generosity. You go into the company, and she looks like everything. Even sometimes a moderator full of positive feedback, and then at the end of the project it turns out that this whole project does not exist.
I, too, always choose the bounty company with extreme caution, but still there are blunders and do not get the proper reward.
try to learn about project, read the whitepaper and website. then see who is the bounty manager, I suggest choosing a trusted bounty manager like amazix, sylon, arteezy, deadley. and many more trusted bounty managers.
yes im agree with you, its so hard to compare a real and fake ico, the scammer now very smart, they 100% like real project.
with the growing number of ICO projects that exist today. Indeed we will be increasingly difficult to find a sign that the project was a scam. And this of course will be very good for us.
I would not concur with you, it isn't that difficult. It is less demanding to distinguish ICOs that will pay you with tokens. In the event that ICO venture is low rated,have no reviews, team is low talented and obscure at that point better not partake in this,bud great ICOs won't scam individuals without a doubt.
I feel you men. Many times that I experience of being scam of a campaign and it's to sad that you won't earn in that campaign that you work. But in that way I learn, I can choose 80% of a successful campaign right now because of that mistake I learn.
I have a separate way to detect a scam on a bounty, just look at this ICO whether people are worth investing here. but it's still difficult to detect a scam
Its better to find the team or the organization making the prospect ICO. A good team or a good member of a team makes a very good impact the project and determining if it is good or bad.
Yes, these days to determine scammed projects because even scam projects now behaves as a good project and a project that has a great future. So one just need to be careful when choosing bounty campaign so as not to fall in to their trap.
