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?

The process of knowing scammed bounty campaigns is very hard because so many bounty campaigns that turns out to be scams look genuine from the beginning, however you can get some of the tell tale signs like unclear whitepaper,fake team etc from the beginning.

it is very difficult for us to know the project bounty campaign is bad or good, we must really examine the project we will follow, do not let the project we follow the scam, and we must follow the project token its a lot.

Above people said the right things, on which much depends! This is the situation, you are a hunter, the project is developing, sales are growing, everything is good. And the sale of tokens ends with a rigid cover, everyone is happy, the hunters are happy , you count the rates, it should not come out very bad. And then your wallet comes in 1000 times smaller amount, and all the failure  Sad I had that is not a project of liars and bounty Manager lied to the hunters and took it all for himself and fled  Undecided So the reality is  Cry

Yes you are absolutely right, scams are everywhere, theres no safe in this world, this is the hardest part in joining campaigns in which we have to choose the right one and the reality is we have no power to predict whether that specific ICO  is legit or not,all we can do is research as long as we can and keep reading, no one likes to be scammed but its part of a risk.

currently a lot of bounty and sometimes difficult to choose a good bounty and not a scam, there are some bounty that has a good project and a good team as well but ended up with a scam, making all our work to be in vain

yes you are right it is very difficult but you can see from bounty managers who already have a very high rank and when there bounty the scam you better report to the administrator in this forum to mark their name.

Is not hard in my opinion. If the manager of campaign is known and has some campaign behind than is ok to join. You should always check old campaign and you can choose what to join.

That's right. Selecting the legit bounty nowadays is really difficult. The bounty seems to be really legit but once its already finish or at the middle of the campaign, it will suddenly say its a scam. What  I am doing is checking thoroughly the bounty project especially if it has unique product or platform.

I thought that the ratings in bench marking sites are enough to identify whether the ICO and the bounty is genuine or not. But actually it is not true. Most of the times those ratings are manipulated and does not indicate the real scenario. I believe you should check the rating as well as the team involved in the bounty. And the provided details are correct or not. As an example, you can just check by visiting the team members' linkedin profiles which are mostly provided by bench marking sites. And also you can do a background check about the bounty managers also.

Some of the very good bounty managers here may not even be able to tell whether or not a bounty scam. But you could scrutinize as best as you can. Reading a lot and asking probing questions in their telegram groups might give the fake bounties away.

Yes, they more smarter to make SCAM Bounty same as legit Bounty. They also can make good whitepaper and anything. So that's which make hard to detect SCAM or not.

yeah, hard to detect the scammed bounty. I always doubt in choosing bounty that is legit. But in this world of crypto, you have to take a risk. Its up to you how to manage your self to decide which is better for you...
Yeah, really hard especially if the bounty is being managed by the respected manager. Almost bounty campaign don't succeed on their ICO and some of the reviews are just being paid. I saw some bounty campaign that ends month ago and yet the bounty hunters didn't receive anything or any update knowing that it is being managed by a good manager. Well, this is the real risk of being bounty hunter and we have to be more patient for use to receive what we deserve.

Yes that is true that it is hard to detect scam bounty campaign. Most especially if you're reading the whitepages how unique the project is and how you will agree how beautiful the project will be. That's how difficult it will be to identify if the project is scam. Maybe you will have a second thought that a project is scam if the project will make changes in the last term of project. What I mean is release of bounty, share and everything. What thought should be running through are heads. People are not stupid. That's the problem if the makers are thinking that people are dumb.
before you join in the bounty you need to sure thqt the manager of the signature campaign have an high profile. I mean you need to search about the manager and If you have a doubt in this bounty. then you're free to go because you don't need to waste your time in the scam bounty campaign. the time and patience are very important to us and don't waste it to trash like the scammer. better research carefully
Usually, if a bounty campaign manager has a high rank - hero or legendary, then it can be much more preferable than a low-ranking campaign manager.

What jeex said is one reliable factor to know if the campaign is a scam or not. By knowing the team of that ICO is another factor.

But the best IMO, is just trade on exchanges if you have a small capital and grow it there if you want real profit.
I guess OP is referring about bounty participation and not investing dude and seems like he doesn't have any idea on how to find the good bounty and for me its about on the campaign manager reputation,because they wont accept a project that he thinks scammy
He messaged me and thanked me for my suggestion. Well I appreciated it that someone has appreciated my suggestion.  Smiley

Yes, he is referring to the bounty participation which looks like he's been joining scam bounties that never paid his/her efforts. That's what jeex said by choosing a reliable campaign manager.

The basic way to know the bounty campaign are really working or active and willing to make a better inclusion between human and cryptocurrency is checking their fundamentals, knowing their team which are reliable and have a good background, the community around them, the project they implemented are usable for the future's living, and the fund raised during the pre-sale met the expected price pool.

This is why evaluating ICOs and bounty campaigns should be a thing. By checking out whitepapers, roadmaps, devs, managers, community and bounty campaign managers you lessen the chances of you getting scammed or participating in a bad ICO. Heck even bountyhive.io is not that 100% reliable.

it is very difficult to see good projects that are not scam, sometimes even if the project is successful they can also scam, as my bounty hunters only do the best to promote their projects, if the scam I have to forget it and look for another good bounty campaign

You just have to do your due diligence and research on the project before you join, nothing less than 4.0 bench mark score in rating.
