Topic: Organized crime in bounties... - page 3. (Read 1483 times)
I am sure that everyone who is doing his job well, even with so many scammers, will make good money in the bounty campaign market
Where there is a smell of money, there will be scams and we can't avoid them, there is only a way is to live with it
This explains ICO projects having thousand members but no activity in group whatsoever. I guess this is why airdrops require KYC nowadays (that's shame but good way to prevent multiple sign ups).
It's understandable there is huge money to be made from bounty hunting two years ago a lot of people made a lot of money from the earlier bounty and so many groups have shifted to crypto bounty hunting in the hope that they will rake a lot of money.
Well, if you are going to make such huge accusations where is your proof?
If I just use common sense and logic I can see a lot wrong with what you are saying.
There is no way they are making 100s of thousands of dollars.
Shitcoins are still shitcoins.
Try and name 5 successful ICOS from 2018 and 2019 that have had successful bounties?
In fact, can you even name one?
Instead, the bounty and airdrop world keeps coughing up 100s of no value projects.
Even the ones that manage to finish their ico have their tokens have no value.
Even if you were to have an elaborate network of scammers and copiers, doesn't matter how much coin you get if that coin is worth just one satoshi.
In my mind, if there are people doing this, then they have got to be the most inneffective scammers out there lol.

this is extremely bad as people who want to earn honestly tokens simply cannot compete with bots and get a penny for the bounty campaign. it should not be
It really is, but most people have no idea what’s happening. They think bounty hunters are lazy, but we are not!! It the scammers and bounty managers who are lazy. 
this scammer is big shit in the bounty campaign, they want to get income from other works and so disgusting and incouraging also that until now this was not yet stop. Hope this forum found the solution to block those scammers continue to expand population in this forum.
It is not only the bounty that must be changed, but actually it is also included in the project itself, which also has to have a new system. currently there are so many projects that are indicated to be scams

this is the digital world, in this forum it's full of scamming.
As for the way you conveyed above, it might only be able to reduce the scamming but can't stop them.
I agree with you we must care more about being able to build a good and strong community.

Thank you for your submission because it opens our eyes to be more careful in doing work. There are many scammers in the crypto world. And that certainly makes it difficult for all bounty hunters and decreases the quality of prizes.
isn't Kyc made to minimize the occurrence of this kind of scammer? if you can't solve this problem, then there must be something safer.
It's still up to bounty manager's skill to trace those cheaters, if the bounty manager is working alone it will be hard to trace all those bounty hunters who cheat the bounty, this is one of the reasons why should hire staff to fully check all the submissions
This is my first time knowing those things! I think scammers would really do everything for a huge amount of money even it took a lot of effort
I encountered a bounty spreadsheet flooded by fake information for telegram campaign, probably a scammers doing.

Scammers finding ways to cheat in a Bounty Campaigns to earn huge amount of tokens some of them using another participants username to cheat,so much better that the project conduct KYC so that no cheaters cannot make any crime's in a Campaign.
So to protect yourself when doing a bounty:
1. Watch all activities and report scamming to bounty managers ASAP
2. Google your own articles to see if someone has posted it under their account.
3. Don’t waste your time with airdrops
But i think, im not agree or no3. There are still many legit airdrop, so airdrop not wasting time. And also the task is so simple1. Watch all activities and report scamming to bounty managers ASAP
2. Google your own articles to see if someone has posted it under their account.
3. Don’t waste your time with airdrops

To the admins
1. Check everyone who enters the bounty.
2. Updates stakes frequently so scammers know you are watching.
2. Don’t be lazy, put in the work...
I agree with last poin, sometimes bounty manager not update the stake. Also some managers provide stakes evenly without checking one by one1. Check everyone who enters the bounty.
2. Updates stakes frequently so scammers know you are watching.
2. Don’t be lazy, put in the work...
For me join in bountyhive is one of the solution, their support is so good and so active so they can help give information about the project
There's big money to be made in bounties but that was then now with so many bounty participants in article and content making you hardly can hardly make decent earnings and sometimes these campaign turn out to be a scam ICO or a big failure in the market.
You stated it nicely. To add to that, bounty managers should also close the forms for new entries once it's one week to the end of the bounty. That's when most of the said scammers enter good bounties.
I have always know airdrops tone full on bots, so I am not surprised at that.
At some points, I used to wonder how some people got their tokens in million, while the normal distribution per individual us just in hundred.
This also extended to bounty and a lot of not accounts on social media bounty.
The bounties that could not use bot were impersonating, duplicating other people's entries.

I think that it will be difficult to fight with multi-accounts in social networks. If you make a restriction on the number of participants, this may not give such advertising as may be if there are many users in the bounty.
There are different type of scammers so finding them one by one is not feasible solution. Applying KYC is better idea because of filtering cheaters before distributing tokens. Bounty payments are used for dumping token's price which has high role for development of project.
These are all rather necessary remarks, but first of all all these recommendations should be addressed to bounty managers. Because it depends on them for the most part that all the necessary conditions are met in order to prevent random people or bots from getting into the bounty.
