Be aware fake (paid) airdrops are sending fake tokens, same name but diffrent smart contracts. So people that are not educated about that could easily loose their cryptocurrencies.

First of all, you need to take care of the security of your data, and never enter your private keys or any other similar information anywhere. This is a guarantee of your safety.

Yes, can. Bounty menager or team members can send a false token. This is not a problem if there is no significant amount of token dispatch. But if the wrong number of token sent is big then the bounty manager or team members contact the person who has received more token and ask him to return the tokens. If the bounty hunter is a good person then can send that tokens back for help that project.

Can you link here the thread where that was discussed? It is kinda impossible to miscount at that high of tokens. It could be just a troll that you had read, unless it was proven that the person really received that amount. It might also depend on the skill of the bounty manager that manages the bounty. Is it the manager's first time to manage a campaign? Is the manager using the spreadsheet right? It might be because they're using an auto-calculations in the spreadsheet, that will output the amount wrong.

Hard to understand how that such things happened around the bounty if this incidents was true, the manger will be the one who will be blamed from this mistake since he's the incharge or the distributing of the coins, its not fair for those other participants as they also do their jobs, if this was for real then it can be a rare case from this market.

For sure. Nobody is perfect and there were so much complains from bounty hunters side that they have got less tokens. This happens because of manual method of distribution. However, there are also failure by a token contract distribution, so you can easily get more tokens as well.

lose for what, if the token they get is a fake coin with a different contract I think they won't get anything. they are only supporters of people who do work that is useless.

Can you give us full details? But it is possible to happen once the bounty manager wrong input. But incase that is true the bounty hunter who got 1 million token better to send back the token to the bounty manager so it will not affect the others bounty hunters. Because it will totally affect the bounty pool and once the bounty hunters did not back the remaining token is either manager or the bounty hunters will be suffer.

I have never heard of this kind of thing but it can happen maybe in some projects that have finished, it will affect other bounty hunters or not depending on the team, if the team reduces the allocation for that reason then other bounty hunters will feel disadvantaged but if the team gives additions to tokens then it will not affect other hunters

Is it possible a bounty provider or bounty team as the case maybe send more than what you earn on the spreadsheet to your wallet? I was reading in a bounty group where sone one said he got more than 1million token when the whole bounty pool is just 9million . won't that affect other bounty hunters from getting their reward?

This is unbelievable as the bounty managers, the ones I know can't make such mistakes. Imagine that, when they even reduce the tokens of participants to keep for themselves. Yes, I have come across such bounty managers, greedy ones. It will be very rare and unbelievable if this actually happened.

It is very much possible. My friend has gotten x10 what he ought to get from a bounty campaign. This is why the developers have to code the distribution using a programing language so that this sort of mistake which usually occurs when there's manual distribution will cease.

I believe this is a blunder on the part of the bounty manager or the person in charge of the distribution. There is no how a single person will have like 10 percent of the bounty pool even if he participated in all the campaign. And in some cases, there have been issues of fraudulent managers, this might be the case here.

I dont think if the bounty manager are reliable to it they were just counting the stake and as stated above the bounty allocations were already counted and someone received more than what is stated on the spreadsheet.

It is very possible. I have see bounty campaign that paid the reward 2x from the amount that should be sent.
This is can be caused by human error or system error. Either they manually distributing the reward mistakenly,
or the automate smart contract they used to send many tokens at once, was failed and error.
To using multi sender smart contract, it is recommended to try using it at first, so it will ensure the distribution will going smoothly without errors.

Thats all a big screw up holy
For such scenario, either

The guy be good and return the extra tokens to the bounty manager or the worst case scenario, the project owner would need to create a new erc20 token

But, it doesn't really affect on the project owner side because they still pay the same amount of Token to bounty manager

It sucks to happen

The second scenario is not really needed, it's no need to create new token just because you sent tokens in wrong amount that usually not really much. There is also no reason for bounty hunters here not to send the token back as they will lose their reputation for the rest of their lives. Whenever manager sent wrong amount of token and the receiver is not willing to send it back then he needs to make it up, he needs to cut his payment off in order to complete the tokens distribution.

It can really happen I have read a lot of these in the past I am not a member of those campaigns, that is why it took a lot of time before bounty manager distribute the shares of the participants, they have a lot of double checking to do, bounty hunters should be patient in the distribution period, it really takes some time.

Name the name of the campaign and how did it happen if they wrongly did that, they can invalid the transactions if it will harm the supply or shares of other bounty hunters, they can do this by creating another token,Streamity and other altcoins have done that, if the bounty hunter refuse to send back the excess.

Say thank you afterwards. Grin

I mean there is no getting it back and yes it will affect the distribution for a lot too.

Even if you pinpoint who the guy is then they could do nothing about it.
They cannot ban that account since it is not his fault . It is being warned in every exchange specially MEW if that is the one they are using to check it twice or better triple check before pressing that send button.

Sometimes people do mistakes but I don't think the bounty manager does this types of mistake. How do you know about it? Sometimes project owner picks two people for the bounty distribution, so they may give the distribution job to that guy who got 1 Million tokens. In some bounty, the manager can divide the payment givers like one man for social, another man for the signature! But if you really speaking the truth here then yes, those 1 Million tokens can be affected to the other hunters and the project too!

It’s really rare to have this happen. If you make a mistake, it may lead to fewer other bounty rewards. Maybe the project party will negotiate with that person and return the wrong reward so that the project can develop well.

There is a possibility of errors in the number of bounty rewards sent to participants. Just like the excess amount then you should.
This can occur due to several factors such as system errors, wallet, input, or other technical matters. Sad

But usually, this is the responsibility of the team to ensure that the problem does not affect other bounty hunters.
And if this happens, sometimes the team will inform and ask the user of the wallet to return the excess token. Although this may be difficult to obtain, at least the team has tried. Not infrequently they also want to return the token to the team. This, of course, will depend on who owns the wallet. If it were you, what would you do?
