Bounty managers would usually require each participant to comment on the bounty thread asking for details such as social media accounts. In filling up the form, the participant should post the link of his comment.

Oh, I experienced that before that was a great move from bounty managers. I wonder why they'd stop from doing it? It will help the campaign to get REAL influencers, not the fake one. This will lessen also their job of re-checking accounts that without their knowing they have already checked.

Locking the topic. I think this method will help people, the manager, and the bounty hunters. Be vigilant co-hunters. Always check the spreadsheet and ask managers kindly for help.

This is really normal when it you joined Telegram Campaign like my account registered 5 multiple times in that campaign. I think we should strict ETH account in the forum. We should only use the one we indecated in our forum account and get banned the bounty participant if use another wallet.

I remember putting ETH address in your profile had been used for airdrops before but I am have not seen managers used it in bounty campaigns yet. Many are not willing to share their address so that method could lessen the participants and would probably affect the exposure of the project.

Why would people want to not expose their ETH accounts? Out from spam tokens?

Almost all of us here mate experience about that situation,so before I apply in any Bounty Campaigns I check the spreadsheet first to avoid cheaters that is using my usernames and profile links,so when I see it that someone spamming my personal information I'll inform immediately the Bounty Manager so they can quickly solve it.

I also have this experience. Those cheaters want to steal our hard earned stakes so as our coins. That is why I always check the bounty spreadsheet and search for my username, bct profile link and other information to make sure that my account will not be copied by cheaters. Maybe they will come up with a way for cheaters not to create duplicate accounts.

With a very heavy load of bounty campaigns going on all at the same time, it's even hard to keep up with the spreadsheet as someone might even use your details to enroll for another signature campaign which you're presently not taking part in.

Yes, unfortunately this fraud is booming on the forum..I often find myself in the table but the wallet address is not mine, even a blog/article saying my user name ...I used to fight, asked to remove scammers, but many managers did not react, I threw it a thankless task...to leave the purse in the subject is not an option, many in the profile he's written, but it does not protect us from scammers.

This post is to inform everyone that this SCAM is out there in the forum.

I had this campaign, I joined Signature Campaign, my account is re-applied in this campaign with another ETH address.

I check my campaign's progress weekly and was shocked to see that I had a double entry. I re-think if I mistakenly re-applied but when I check the ETH address it was a different address. None of those I can control.

This might cause a problem for those who are working hard for a campaign. And at the end, if not avoided/reported, might cause you to lose your reward.

To help others and maybe campaign managers, I wanted to start a list of ETH addresses that are used in this kinds of scam attempts. Hope you guys can help me by posting/reporting here address you wish to be added.

I already encounter this kind of situation where another person use my accounts and it's information just to reapplied in a bounty campaign but with a different wallet address. So I made a contact with the bounty manager to take care of my query and he/she suddenly denied the participation of that person, so it is better to always checked the spreadsheet if there's other people using our names.

I've seen this kind of issue in the bounty campaign, someone trying to cheat the bounty by using somebody else account.
But a few days later the account already crossed, and mentioned that the account is a fake one, it seems the real owner reporting the account to the bounty manager.

Thank you for the information that you have shared with all of us here. It is very worrying that this has happened to campaign participants, this will be very detrimental to participants. A person who works for weeks does not get a prize, because the wallet address has been changed by the perpetrator. This is worrying !! Angry

UPDATE: Now I was accused of multiple accounts. I detected another participant who uses my account. This is really bothering. But good thing the manager of the campaign is cooperative.

Maybe putting our approved address in our information here in our account can help? I remember before, that some campaigns require hunters to put their ETH address(es) in their location details.

So if the address is not in the location address of the hunter's account, they will not accept it.

Im not quite sure if this is really the use of this method before.

Do you guys think this will help?

this cheating problem has often happened on every bounty, indeed we are worried that multiple lists can be a problem, but I'm sure the bounty manager has their own way to solve this problem. but if we find it, report it to the bounty manager to help them overcome this problem.

it's useless to post their eth address, because the eth address they always change and they make a new one in each bounty they cheat.

That's why a bounty campaign manager should ask the participant to resgister the proof of authentication post.
So, the scammer can't duplicate our entry

So how this proof of authentication work?

Even you have a bunch of eth address of probably impersonators, they actually create a new one, like hundreds of it, so you cant find that person by collecting their claiming address, because they are only signing up/filling up google form and dont have any link about their forum username.

You should create a topic in the Reputation section and try to find out what address the ETH walks into with the bitcointalk account, from which you can "tag" all of those accounts.

I guess we should be very careful on giving our details on fake airdrops and bounty campaigns, let's make it a habit to check whether we have a double entry or someone used our details in that particular project. The best thing to do if you discover one is to report to the bounty team so that they'll give proper action to the perpetrators.

often come across things like this and indeed very troubling. people want to be paid from the results of the hard work done to others. enough just to report manager bounty to take action against that sort of thing. even if the need to browse just the wallet from voters transactions exist because sometimes the wallet also belongs to one of the accounts in this forum.

I see this almost all the time, people register with my name on bounty both the one I'm participating on and the ones I'm not partaken in.
The most annoying one is the signature part which just started recently. You will register on a signature campaign, few weeks later someone else will help you register for that same company again.

This is one of the reasons why sometimes you need to check the table in the bounty, so that it does not work out that you are doing the work, and someone else has registered the same account but with another purse and the payments will get to someone else!

I am pretty sure that bounty managers are constantly removing dual entries so the fear of loosing your earnings is in vain. The first entry is the valid one most of the time, but if there is any doubt about it, bounty managers should definitely contact the person and resolve the situation.

No I don't think it's a mistake from a bounty manager. How come he would paste a different eth address. If it's at least wrong then I will consider it a mistake. But it is a working ETH address and has some coins in it.

It happened to me as well, I saw that my double entry was in the campaign. What will you do in this? You should be aware of every aspect of every campaign you choose. Spreadsheets, this is where every campaigner is recorded. You keep checking it periodically. If you find any such information, you should notify the Bounty Manager about it. In this way you can avoid double fraud

Double entry, moreover with a different wallet address is the indication that someone was trying to cheat some bounty program. The first whose applying must be the real one.

I think this already happened a lot, some participants are cheating on campaigns, especially signature campaigns. They copy details of your account, especially high ranking accounts on campaigns with a lot of participants, since managers sometimes over-look or forget to check whether there's a double entry. They just change the ethereum address, so that they can get bounties without posting anything.

Recently i have seen this type of scam and many complains from bounty hunters. Scammers use high rank members name in the signature or telegram bounties and later claim that they have lost their private key and would like to change their ETH address. to which some genuine members even lost some of their efforts and hard earned money too considering multiple entries by admins. Thats truly a biggest thing going on right now.

That is why a bounty hunter should always check their status and wallet address regularly if not everyday as instances such as this happens where scammers get the hard earned reward of a bounty hunter. The lesson to this is to self regulate every this that you do in your account whether it is in this bounty or other accounts for cryptocurrency.
