every bounty hunter must be able to research everything he will follow. decisions are in the person of each.
It's each individual's responsibility when they do bounty. The forum has actually no obligation on determining each project's legitimacy. This forum is open for all so as a member and if you do bounties, take time before joining one. Don't put your responsibility to others as if they are the ones that should do research for you.

yes all risks must be prepared if we are not careful because there is no strong law that will protect bounty hunters from all kinds of fraud. so do everything carefully and always do research first to make sure our choices are right and will produce a good profit later
Making money is hard, that should be at least what we have to think for us to make an effort on researching the project.
Stay here if you a risk taker, and if you are not, you should go with other forms of investment, it's impossible to prevent scammers to use this forum to scam people, so really take it serious when investing here and don't allow them to scam you.
I hope Bitcointalk will start caring about its people ,there should be new moderators that can fish out bad projects on here to avoid wasting time of bounty hunters ,and about KYC ive come to think of it as many bounty hunters don't like KYC I'm sure if Bitcointalk is the one asking for KYC so as to limit frauds and multiple accounts bounty hunters won't complain, we will follow the rules ,but first 'SAFE US FROM BAD SCAMMY PROJECTS' ,no matter how wise we investigate a project they end up been scam ,scammers are getting wiser as well.looook at desico for example 
Can anyone tell me if he/she knew Desico is a scam from day one? I guess not
Can anyone tell me if he/she knew Desico is a scam from day one? I guess notmost bounty hunters really dislike the existence of KYC for new projects being launched, because they fear that the given identity can be misused by an irresponsible team. it is true that this is only a waste of time because the identity that we provide is not necessarily able to be diversified by the project, while one of the conditions for receiving prizes is to give KYC first
Indeed, but we should not worry about identity document because the developers team just want to comply with the law. In european zone, our identity protected by GDPR law and i think bounty with KYC is good but not indicating its a good project because its different area
everything a bounty hunter does in doing everything he does with or without the risk that the project is right or wrong,

Fraud projects are often sent by our friends for reasonable reasons. But as long as I joined and was actively involved in gift activities, only a few others told me about the right fraud project. That's because of coincidence. Regarding the Bitcointalk forum moderator, I think this is very good in carrying out its functions. As for scam projects, as you mentioned, it's a job rather than a bounty campaign manager. Even if the project they manage ends in a scam, the risk will be received, one of them from the bounty participant.
You got it all wrong, cause every hunter should research and make a decision of the project they want to participate on, Bitcointalk has nothing to do with it. Kyc is a thing of choice, if you can't deal with Kyc then don't participate in that project.
it is not easy to determine a really good project and certainly will have a lot of risks that we must bear.we must be good at researching and finding out the truth about the project.
if you find a wrong project, you will be in vain to join.

youre right buddy, in the past 3 bounty program im participated and already finished, they cut the rewards allocation from 500k$ and become 100k$, maybe on the rule say the team and bounty manager can change the rule, but they can change the rule not the rewards, and if they told it from the beginning, i think just few hunters would participated, so they actually cheat us as tools whos already help spread about their project, so please safe us as a bounty hunters.
There are many scam projects are coming with their ICO or IEO but who knows it is a scam or good as they also using https;// security in their website. it is only the platform Bitcointalk who can apply its expertise as a moderator to ban this project here. So, that the bounty hunters are get rid of loosing of their time with the money and the personal information. Again, their should be no KYC compliance for bounty hunter. Then only the bounty hunters will stay safe.

I think the bitcointalk management team has no rights and no responsibility for bounty hunters being cheated. they can only manage topics and give notice that there are quite a few reporters. Can anyone tell me if he/she knew Desico is a scam from day one? I guess notOur work now has a good salary and so we have more risks. We need to be more sophisticated when testing projects and also need some luck!
I don't think it will help the forum! Rather it can harm the reputation of this forum and its aims! Because you can't be 100% suire about a project until they well regulated. Many ICO project looked great but they ended with scam!
we often to see succesfull ico projects at the middle of developtment be scam projects.take a look at titanium , they reach hardcap and even could create new highest price.but unfortunately it has problem with SEC and finally be scamm. forum moderators do not have to select the right projects or not. but bounty managers should do this. so you need to choose the right managers.
I was participating in Desico. and i was thinking that this is a good project. I hope they will go to the prison

I would like to add up something to your information provided, what I can say is that, bounty managers should be the one to figure out this, along with us, we are a community here, and sometimes managers might not notice the failure or hints that a scam bounty can provide. And we should establish a good team here where we are aware of the market and its projects running.

Likewise, I feel that until now there has been no guarantee of safety for hunters even more than fraudulent projects, but here hunters always try their best in analyzing and working. It's not easy to find a good project if it's only based on good knowledge, I also still don't understand why some are just nonsense and waste time. At least we just want to collaborate well and maintain the Cryptocurrency reputation from other bad things.
I think we should investigate a project, sometimes we fall into fraudulent projects, it's very funny ...
and we cannot blame the moderator for that. but looking for a gift program that can be BM by someone who can be trusted or a gift platform that often launches real projects, it's better than we research existing projects and this can minimize us falling into fraudulent projects

Just as the OP, everyone would also have his story to tell as regards his encounter with scam projects. Sometimes we might not be able to totally avoid it. The best sometimes will be thta you do not rush into engaging yourself in their bouny. Try to reserve some time to do research and make findings through experts, in which we have some on this forum. you might personally decide to carry out research on the team. If the team is real and they are those who have integrity, then there is possibility the project succeeds.
It is indeed difficult to get rid of phishing projects but that does not mean that it cannot be done because the phishing project is made from someone's wishes, this can certainly be prevented even though it is very difficult, at least the phishing project can be reduced.
then, now how to reduce it? Until now I think there are still too many and there has been no serious effort to reduce even to throw away a project like that. all still depends on our analysis and luck in choosing a project. Jump to:
