This is not something I would recommend for beginners. Since new users cannot use signature spaces, your advice won't be very helpful to them. In contrast to this time, when I haven't joined any campaigns for a while, I haven't received any PMs asking if I'm interested in turnkey online casino development services, which I ignore because the sender is a newbie. Instead, I have received PMs from the same forum user asking if I'm interested in casinos.

With PM offers, it would be best and highly advisable to utilize escrow when possible as another layer of scam protection.  Be vigilant and protect yourself at all times here to avoid unnecessarily parting with your bitcoin.

Yeah, I understand where you are coming from. They do not want their project to be in the spotlight too much and that is why they are attempting to advertise their project sneakily through PM offers. I would not accept the same offer if I do not see a thread of their project even if it is a legitimate one. Either it is a fake clone project or just something that wants to waste your time obviously.

Conclusion:
Newbie and other forum members should be careful and always do a due diligence investigation about any offer through you receive through your PMs as that is one of the ways some companies both legit and scam companies approach forum members to promote their project on this forum and i think for the sake of your forum reputation it is better you only enrolled on legitimate projects.

The question users should ask is if they are expecting PM. This is the first thing to bear in the mind and if it is yes, if you check and see the pm from who you are expecting to receive PM you can click to know what is in it like expecting PM from campaign manager as some signature manager can do acceptance of application through the PM. But when you are not expecting PM from any one, you don't need to click on pm when you don't know the sender with being your friend in the forum. I ignore my PM alot because I'm not expecting it why do I click it? No reason except from trusted member and not all those from telegram call groups seeking membership to the fake group for their good.

Emphasizing on personal message (pm) is something everyone knows that it's for privacy, and i believe that anyone who received message from it's inbox knows what is obtainable, except that the person is a newbie, but actually this your information concerning personal message advantages and disadvantages don't have anything to do with newbies of the signature and avatar you included. Because newbies don't do with though thing's mentioned.

This is the first I have seen someone openly talk about this. I have never received any such pms about promotions or anything of the sort. Legit companies who want their advertising done on the forum know the service board is where they can find reputable bounty/campaign managers, some may choose to create their own forum account to manage the campaign themselves. If you’re getting the offers you say you’re, then you must be doing something right maybe in the gambling or casino threads.
Probably that’s the reason because even myself I used to receive emails and PMs but mostly from gambling. But when it comes to using my signature or whatsoever, I have never experienced that. But for everyone’s safety, do not go for PMs immediately since they can be some sort of fraud or scamming. Research or investigate first so you will never have to regret later on.

For the past few weeks back I have received various offers through personal messages on this forum, asking me to rent out my signature, avatar, and personal text space to promote their brand on this forum so I went into research to access the risk and the benefits that will come with such offers. And I thought of dropping my views on PM offer here on the beginner and help section to help beginners and older members that may receive such offers through PM!

To receive such offers, you must be a very well-known or extremely fortunate member. The only offers I ever get via PM are those from campaign managers, requests to join and post on specific gambling threads, and occasionally, requests from clients who wanted my services but left after receiving my budgets. They are a cheap project scammer looking for a cheap manager to oversee a possible scam project, lol. I don't care.

Op I'm curious why you accepted one of the low-paying signature campaigns despite receiving such a high-paying offer in PM. Is there anything I don't understand?

I will be glad if I can see a copy of the pm to know how the threats will be like. Grin


I sent you a PM, a letter that was recently sent to me unpleasantly, although, of course, I try to delete rude messages. From your disbelief, I read all the BOS, and yes, most of the letters began with a request to remove the minus tags, but in some cases people are intemperate. And yes, of course, all threats are just words. I know that nothing will follow them, in addition, some tags are removed over time. And other especially hot guys can be sent to ignore. I always understand that threats come only from weakness and desperation.

Threats are made from a position of weakness and of desperation. Most people who are quick to give threats are like the proverbial dog who doesn’t bark nor bite. Great to see you aren’t in the least bothered by those lot.

Well, I have never received such an offer. I do however wonder how much these people usually offer you? If anyone has experience, I would love to know.
It varies. You could receive offers through Telegram or from your inbox here in the forum. I ended up encountering from both platforms though I humbly decline since I do not have the time to review their projects or their ANN thread or even their main website.

Usually it is just the usual introduction to what their project is all about and sometimes they do put their main website, and sometimes they don't. They will offer you a payment of either a token or a stablecoin in an exchange. From how it ends up, I do not know since I declined.

Most of the offer like this came from dev's which doesn't have enough budget and only want to pay users by their tokens created. They didn't create their own bounty thread because they don't have money  to pay for decent managers and they try to create huge impact by asking high ranking users to be their participants without paying any valuable assets came to their own pockets and most of this offers are 100% scams and glad didn't see any weird signatures inserted on some members so most provably this asking to wear methods didn't work at the moment since many for sure will decline the offer.

Those messages were harsh and threatening. The best approach would have been diplomacy, but they chose the wrong approach. If after reading those trash threats, you remove the minus tag, it just made you a coward. That is the more reason you will not consider to untag them. Besides, it seems one person is behind the two accounts because they use same format, same excuse and same threat.

I only receive threats from desperate cheaters and offers to remove negative tags.
Making offers for you to remove the negative tag in their profile is something that is understandable and something cheater can easily do because most of them think that money can solve all problems.
But then issuing a threat to you is something I don't know how they will be able to do that. Let me assume that a threat is a threat as it is called and it cannot be real. The only people that can give you a threat maybe you have a second thought about it are people from your local.
They must have known you in person or have an idea of the state or locality you live.

As far as scams go, anyone could get duped into promoting a scam project. We are all human, so there needs to be room for understanding... But if you continue to support a scam, even though people tell you its a scam then you will ruin your reputation and you will deserve the red trust, regardless of whether or not the signature was ok'd by a signature bounty manager. Furthermore, you should always do a minimal amount of research before you put their signature on your profile. Don't expect a manager to do it for you.

You had better be careful with the kinds of PMs you received, I've got so e scenarios of receiving unsolicited messages that i do end up reporting such shit and aside that, I don't still believe if they can pay more than the signature campaign here on the forum, if not they would have come out boldly to make expression of interest and open a bounty or signature campaign to back up their stand, be suspecious of anything too real to be truth, moreover i think you should have accepted one of their offers and do away with your signature campaign since you said it pays than sig campaigns.

I am just so who you are really referring to because you can't tell us that newbies really need all these advise you are trying to tell us who looks like you don't really know much a out this great forum before you will come up with advise which is just very funny to me. Maybe you are trying to advise those you know more than what you think you know.
Okay you write somethings about signature and accepting offers from dm and how it can be paying more than the normal signature we ha e here. That is unnecessary and I don't think anyone needs all these to stay alive. Just stick to your signature that is paying you are stop advising newbies when you are also one.
Rather than putting up large body of text saying nothing to contribute to the discussions and just following a pattern of replies from members with the same fragile mindset as yours and just commenting to increase your post counts, i advise you to read the replies of those with knowledge and experience to learn and not just be jumping up and down trying to look smart saying nothing, this is not going to help you. Stick to what you know and stop jumping into discussions you have nothing to add. I come in peace!

This advice cannot be for n newbies because they cannot wear a signature and therefore the lowest rank that these offers may receive is the full member, but what is the point of creating this topic?

Rarely does an account have unique writing style that companies have to pay specifically to rent out their ad space.
Thus, scam may be the only motive if you receive such offers.

Interesting enough, I have not encountered any PMs renting out my signature in order to advertise a certain gambling establishment, local exchange, or mixer.

Though there may be some forum users who post regularly, I have yet to encounter this kind of offer. But like what you mentioned, newbies cannot wear any signatures- so the offers of renting out their signature space cannot be made applicable to what OP is referring to.

The bottomline conclusion is- always be doubtful and skeptical. If you receive a random message informing you to invest or to try a certain wallet and/or links, be skeptical that it is a scam. Again, it is wholly better to prevent a scam than to cure a scam!

You getting promotional messages inbox OP is your luck and destiny. I know campaign managers do that to members they think are exceptional posters. But I did not know other random members also pm people on that too.

I only receive threats from desperate cheaters and offers to remove negative tags.

That is serious. But what do those who make threats online aim to achieve? Do they expect that such threats can shake someone up or what? What kind of a threat will that be. Someone who they may not even know where he resides, and you are threatening to do them harm? That is funny.
I believe that some users have received various kinds of PMs, while some are for promotional offers others may be threats from members who may have seen your activities as a threat to them, and most times those who send such threats are scammers who may have been exposed and tag by other members here most especially the DT members.

Not everyone in the forum does receive a pm for the rent of their avatar and signature space. Receiving it means you are a quality poster. Although there are members of the forum that openly rent their avatar and signature space for reputable projects. They should ask those people for the service of using their avatar and signature space if they are genuine than getting involved. That should be your best response to them to avoid promoting a project that will tag your account at the end. It will be a good idea not to get involved and to take chances that you will regret in the future.

This will depend on who makes the offer. If it is an untrusted newbie, then that's immediately a red flag. But if it's an untrusted newbie who's willing to put payment funds in a reputable escrow, then it might be legit. But there is also a need to take a look at the company or service that is to be promoted.

Also, it is possible that an offer comes from a known campaign manager here. I know, for example, that there are signature and avatar slots that are offered through PM even though the same is also being posted on the services board. Others might only be offered through PM and recommendations.
For me, regardless of who made the PM if it’s newbie or a legend in the forum, the best thing to do is still to make DYOR and investigate the project. If it’s legit and is very promising, then you can bite the offer and see where will it lead you. But this is only happening occasionally, as most of the legit projects and reputable managers post it on the forum rather than making a PM to someone they are targeting. Still be cautious on that matter.
