Scammers knows what investors want, be very careful
Indeed. Being an investor also brings responsibility for each of us. Not just because you have the money, you'll invest whenever you want unless you don't care with where you are throwing your money.

Scams are almost everywhere and they'll come again with possible more batches this time because they can see that the market is growing and profitable again. To bounty hunters and investors, always look for feed backs and do research with the project you'll commit time and money.

You have named just two i can name more than two dozen such projects that have either not paid the bounty rewards or have lowered the reward after campaign end, massive devaluation on exchanges has happened to almost all projects so rewards have shrunk further automatically also do not forget a lot of exit scams and failed projects so all in all last 2 years have been terrible.

After tachyon protocol bounty became successful bounty hunters have since then become addictive with low bounty allocations, I have few facts to share with you today

1. Blockburn

This bounty campaign has only 15k worth of rewards, many said quality matters, well I don't doubt that, but I want you to learn from this, as small as the bounty allocation is they still scam, on BW exchange and cointiger the team dumped and they said they don't know who did it, for those who like judging based on use cases well blockburn had a good one. This makes many investors fall victim here, they raised lot of money easily.

2. IMO Platform

Another bounty campaign that introduce Initial Model Offering, something new to attract investors and bounty hunters, it did work because many invested on the IMO Token but in the end it's big scam or Ponzi scheme, the only connection I can find between this two projects is the bounty manager, a crazy bitch called @Duchesspink



This BM is very rude and I did challenged her on telegram about a project that raised fund successful on IMO Platform called HCE, she said she will get back to me after finding answers from the team but later she blocked me, becareful about this perfect scammers, nowadays scammers are capable of creating attractive projects, low bounty allocations doesn't count.

All that glitters are really not gold, one should be very careful when choosing Campaigns to Join and invest, what I do is to get peoples reviews on a project before I join

But why people are still joining bounties! Roll Eyes
and now each participant also does his research before joining the bounty.
If this is practicing by all the bounty hunters then who are feeding all those shit scam bounty campaigns? So its clear that not every bounty hunter is bothered to do enough research they just get attracted towards offers, social media activity and fake devs. Grin

I really like your point of view and strongly support it. IMO project from the beginning looked messy to me, users didn't have full control of their wallet to begin with, no private keys or mnemonic phrase or keystore. Also, the percentage locked after participating in the initial exchange model was way huge compared to the percentage released, doesn't really  make sense. Many Bounty hunters fall prey especially when a coin is trading (with low allocation as usual) or when the project has high allocation and hype even without being listed. The manager in charge also matters, that's one of the things to check before doing any bounty. Most importantly, do your best to ensure the project is genuine, if at the end things  go south, atleast you've done your part, there mustn't be a perfect end all the time.

People who join Bounty certainly have their own reasons, and it's clear that bounty participants can't just be blamed because they only use their free time to bounty, and now each participant also does his research before joining the bounty.

So it becomes a new trend to scam people with low bounty pool allocations?

Honestly scammers will always find a way to scam people, that is why they are scammers to begin with, there is really nothing you can do. However when there is so much weirdness going around with a company (or a project) you should never try to find an excuse for them, same in life as well, hell even same in politics which is a big issue.

When someone does something that is getting a lot of angry responses, do not try to find a way to calm people down, if it gets heat for no good reason at all then you can defend but if they do something that gets heat that is not your responsibility at all.

If a project does something wrong, or smells funny, just walk away, do not spend another second or dime there, there is a lot of other cool projects out there which you can check out.

I do not get where these bounty manager's get this attitude. I mean firstly you are promoting a poor quality project where chances of hunters being paid any reasonable amount is very low on the other hand you are getting paid yourself weekly in eth btc or usdt yourself, still you behave badly with the hunters who are the lifeline of the campaign so you need to respect them atleast.

these are really very sad examples of projects. many investors lost their money. Blockburn is a scam. if you look at the price now you will cry for a very long time if you bought these coins
Until you lose a lot of money in the cryptocurrency market, you will not be serious about cryptocurrency assets. Experience is the main thing you can get over the years in this market.

I am hearing a lot of complained about the transparency of this BM. Mostly on the blockburn which whoever ask about their stake or reward are get banned. This is a typical attitude of scammers. Even IMO platform has been like a scam project now. I am wanted to join to their bounty before but good thing I did not.

This BM should be avoided. I mean why she is banningg people who were just entitled for answer. Well thats a legitimate question of course, they are just asking for their hard earned tokens from bounty then their experienced a rubbish attitude.

this is what ive said before  . scamers are really getting smarter too and they know that people are now avoiding huge allocations  but now that scams exist  on low bounty allocations i think this will be hard now to choose if which projects are best to join .  if i were to choose id say that huge bounty allocations are too good to be true so they are likely scam  , i will still risk on low allocated ones  and i will accept the result failed or not  .  we just need to move on and advance if we really wanted to earn

I'm not familiar with this projects but it seems they put a good strategy (based on what you just posted here), specially

1. low quality cap, then they pump it up
2. many members see it an opportunity to make money, join the bounty
3. BM is rude
4. Now it is a shit project

@bitbollo has put a good investigation and even posted a scam accusations against the project.

So everyone should watch out about this low cap projects or shall I say "low crap" as this is another way to attract investors and bounty hunters to fall for their trap.
@bitbollo he did a great job, he saw this was a scam project in the first days. And now this project has become a scam just like what he has analyzed. I just hope someone can punish these scammers

i partook in this two bounties and really i benefited little from IMO but blockburn was a total failure  i never expected. the storyline about the insulting campaign manager is not new here. she ws known by all for her quick and insolence way of responding to questions about bounties. One thing participants failed to understand is that she knows nothing about this two projects that she managed. she was used as a means of fending off bounty hunters.

I also saw IMO being a bullshit project from the beginning. It has made many people lose money when investing in their platforms, and also thanks to this article I saw the bounty manager of the two projects are the same. Apparently both projects are bullshit and scam

And vice versa. Some legit projects has been tagged as scam here by various persons but today these projects are doing well with their project development. We should learn not to be in a haste to condemn a project because well thought out scam leaves no trace behind. Many projects have collapsed in this same vein.

Don't compare these bullshit projects with the tachyon project. They are a big project and are listed on big projects. I was not surprised that blockburn became a scammer, they left the project when IEO was completed and now they leave a huge landfill.
