Topic: List of bounty projects that end in a scam or void bounty agreement (Read 1201 times)
Now it's not enough to share the name of scam projects because people have to deal with situations like this. Because the scam doesn't gets completely stop from happening. It's been happening ping and it will be happening in the future but the thing is people have to start to make research about the project for a better understanding of it. If everyone would do started to make research then it will get much easier to bust a scam.

I think that in reallity this list is much, much longer. Too many dead projects here and on the market in general
Please think realistically, because one's dirty thoughts will not have any effect here, so please give your thoughts here as long as it matches what has happened to all projects.

Amen to that! It is a much longer list, and one person should spend days working on that list, and with that
list will not be full! It's waste of time, names of these projects don't mean a thing, people who run it change
name and color and we have new scams.
I been in few bounties that turn out to be scams and some bounties paid me but they just stopped with developing, now I have worthless tokens. It's why I participate in signature campaign and I'm paid in BTC.

I dont really know why you keep insisting. But okay, I already made a separate section for blockburn hope your happy now. I will be off the chat on this thread, sorry but not really interested to prolong the discussion about the past. Anyway good luck on compiling the OP, it must have a tough work for you. @Cryptoaddictchie, the last time i saw the thread i only captured the project you listed but when you said disclaimer now i went over again but i didnt see it on the thread youre talking about and i dont know if there's problem from my ending but you guys can glance at it

Thanks for your emphasized. But maybe I did forgot to properly put disclaimer but from what I explained on the thread its obvious that I just selecting list based on my preference but I already put a note and in deed make sure there it is now. Thank you once again. https://imgur.com/sutNLTp

I doubt that blockburn is going to matter in June because I'm pretty sure they will evade the bounty distribution again, whenever this type of trust less arose in any bounty project I ignore such project as if I never joined the bounty campaign, Cartesi did a very good job today but keeping their promise, all bounty hunters received their tokens successful
I don't know much about blockburn but I can tell you guys if a team is not delivering on their promise that they made you, there is no reason why you shouldn't think of it as scam.Even if they end up paying you in June, that is still scam, the scam is not getting your work or money and not paying you, the scam is getting your work or money and not delivering on time and instead postponing it. And that is even if they do end up paying, it is still a scam but a smaller scam, this way if they do not pay its even a bigger scam. Hence at the end of the day, if a team broker's one promise, they could break another, this is literally why I trust decentralized coins, like bitcoin and ethereum, if a coin has ownership, that ownership could do whatever they want and you can't do anything about it.

Hi there I received your PM. Im aware of the allegation on blockburn, it was indeed listed on my thread but as far as you know, the issue resurface after the campaign was ended. But prior to that or in the middle grounds there is no such issue during that time. I dont know what you want me to do, since its done already should I removed that considering its on the ended list already? Making a note would be fine but as my latest update, they delay the payment for hunters which is not good but until proven that they will really not pay is probably a signed of scam. They are still trading on the market right but with a very low volume. Probably @cryptoaddictchie is not updating the thread, last update is on May 6, 2020. But, that's just a recommendation for bounty hunters, not always 100% safe.
Thanks for quoting me. I dont find any good new campaign to add, but just updated some extension on my list. I'm not sure why some people complaining about my list campaign, which I already put a disclaimer that is not a 100% safe but at least they should do their own due diligence. Having a compile list of 100% legit is not attainable, Im not a super geniudon't offer them that. Anyways, she already pm me about the thing regarding blockburn. Honestly, I dont like the theme or concept of this thread. Better to report each and any discovery scam on an approriate section than making a shitlist that cantrealize warning about a new altcoin projects better than a proven scam which everybody late to realized that but its good as done. Money gone!https://imgur.com/sutNLTp

I am glad that I did not waste my time in any of it. I always try to do some research before participating in any project. Many bounty hunters just join every bounty they find. Especially new hunters do that often. So I think this kind of post can help them to understand and avoid any fake or scam project next time though it's not very easy every time. Sometimes a very good looking project also ends up being a scam.

I really don't know why some projects make use of bounty hunters and when it's time to get paid, they bring up different stories. Some get locked up for a year and when it's time for tokens to get unlocked they exit the project after working to promote there project. Some even come up with excuses like bounty hunters are responsible for the dump in price if there projects. I think its time to have a central bounty association or they pay in stable coins to avoid all these excuses.

Blockburn, Insure, Leadwallet ... These are campaigns that have failed recently and don't make payments to bounty hunter. Obviously we have too many scam projects and it's impossible to list them all
Insure is a scam project. They stopped the bounty campaign and did not make previous payments. And for Leadwallet, this project has completely failed to implement IEO in Emirex. Certainly, bounty participants will never receive tokens from themNowadays many projects are really struggling with fundraising process, out of the many project coming up everyday in the market, only very very few are able to generate revenue (through the help of ieo in a reputable exchange) the rest will come and then disappear because of lack of support from the crypto community which is the key to succeed, unfortunately if project are unable to sell then they can not do anything about bounty payments.

Cartesi is a project listed on Binance, so I doubt that they will have the guts to double cross the participants and also theit manager is very reputable and known to handle good projects unlike the manager of Blockburn that is provided by their own team. Good luck to all who joined the campaign. If you dont get paid, then just complained on the scam accusation or create any formal complain to them via email. They are listed on few exchanges perhaps those exchanges can be influence about the hunters case.

It's totally useless if we just keep creating list of scam bounties rather than sharing tips and idea on how to recognize one. It won't be bad if you can help list some bounties with potentials.
Well, several tips on how to identity scam related projects have been provided on this forum if you have been following such topics.
In another development, the list of scam projects are inexhaustible. Sincerely I cannot even remember the names of some projects I participated in that later turn out to be scam: ethereumbasic, multiversum, datablockchain and so on just to mention few.

Well, Blockburn's price has dropped a lot over the beginning. And if they make distribution in June, they will definitely need a lot of tokens to be able to reach $ 15k. They will certainly postpone it one more time
They wont distribute anything. They've already scammed lots of bounty hunters by removing them from campaign.
Take a look on their spreadsheet into twitter section's "Timestamp". I would never believe, that hunters joined the campaign only from March 16 - 18, when the campaign started in the beginning of February. One can say that these are verified accounts only. Then why there were only 3 days to verify participation and nothing about it was mentioned in the topic.
Bounty pull is $15k only, most of the campaigns allocates 20% with 200+ participants in. I just don't understand why blockburn bounty is so often discussed in the forum, when each hunter could receive $15-30 only? I understand if the projects pull was hundred of thousands and hunters missed an opportunity to earn $200+. But complain so much for not receiving $15-30, that's bs

As far as I know, Blockburn only delayed payments for 3 months from the schedule it was supposed to. If they keep their promises, the distribution will be done in June, we just wait, whether it will be real or there will be other delays. 
I don't know the purpose of this thread that discusses the bounty that ended SCAM because discussing projects that ended scam will not do any good, it is better to discuss projects that have just been launched but have indications of scam. it is like prevention and can help many people
At least we can learn that not all bounty campaigns are legitimate. Even though the product is good, a good team, already traded in the market, has the potential to be a scam. So, we must do an analysis and be prepared to face all risks gracefully.

OP I think we shouldn't be talking about bounty projects that scam or cheat bounty hunters, this will only makes you look deep in the past and kill your present motives about bounty projects

Leadwallet? I don't like that bounty projects because the team aren't professionals to me, the website is junkie too, they are Africans looking for money is all I see, I'm not so sure about insure but blockburn was confirmed scam by many bounty hunters, it's really a shame what bounties are becoming May 22, 2020, 01:14:43 AM
Gas fee! How big is the gas fee to send participants reward that the project owners can't afford! This is really an excuse like you said, if the project is that trustworthy, I don't think gas fee can be the barrier to send reward, except intentionally they don't want to do it, which ofcourse is no longer news with bounty campaigns and reward payment.
May be they are not sharing the truth, may be they are. I have seen in their telegram group that the company behind the project is bankrupted. They are now trying to collect fund for starting the project. The required gas fee is not big. I wonder why julerz12 did not escrow the fee too. Anyway the project seems dying soon.Gas fee shouldn't be an excuse for why they haven't sent tokens to participants. If this is really their problem, then anyone that has a deal with them in one way or the other should be very careful.
If a project isn't coming out plain to it's community, then expect them to go down the rail.
