Yes, a private key must be a cheater. There are many projects that you need to join in the telegraph group and twitter. You can also judge the authenticity of the project by checking their social media and looking at the time and interaction of twitter.
Yes, in addition to being said, also if they are asking your data, name and email address as well as getting KYC, which is red flag also for a scammed as they can use that information to retrieve your accounts.
Be careful guys

I think the easiest way to know about the project, bounty, airdrop that you join is when they not update again at all of it social media. Because every project that have good team always give update about the development from their project. And i think that is one of indication you can know if it is scam
The following are some of the easiest way to figure out a scam airdrop
1. They will ask you to donate
2. They will ask for your private key

Are there still people who give their secret key to others, although they can go and in another way to learn from you all the data. Therefore, this is a shortened list, where there is obvious fraud. 1. They will ask you to donate

1. FAKE SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNT
2. ENGLISH OR GRAMMATICAL ERRORS
3. THEY ALWAYS BEG FOR DONATIONS
4. THEY SHARE REFERRER LINKS
5. THEY DON'T HAVE WHITE-PAPER OR WEBSITE
I earned from airdrops because when I am still starting to know about it I was too active that I always check the telegram channels for airdrop if there is new which I could join. But now I realized that with the lot of efforts I have I only earn less.
Yes ... that's right, how could an airdrop ask the participants to send eth to them, is not the airdrop program to spread the token for free? So if anyone asks for eth, it goes against the meaning of the airdrop itself. 
Scam airdrops do not have excel spreadsheet for confirmation after registration . They do not also have white paper and websites

HERE ARE SOME BIG ONES!
They don't link to a website on the google doc.
They have no website to link to.
They use images they found in google for social media profile pics.
They misspell every other word in their airdrop form.
They forget to ask you for your eth address to send the airdrop to.
Almost all airdrops are scam. Better stick to conventional coins
In addition, if they don't explain further the details and they can't even provide white paper for the project.
Yes most of them are scam but not all of them. The only thing is you have to be careful with your private key. To be on the safer side create a new ETH wallet and a new email for Airdrops because you cannot easily detect scam Airdrops.

As if that makes any difference at all. That excel spreadsheet coul still be filled mostly be their (or other people's) sockpuppet accounts. There's no way to know.
And existence of a white paper alone doesn't (shouldn't) make any difference at all, the contents of it might though.
Never took part in airdrops. I dont really trust any of these.
Not all airdrops are scam. If they're just asking for your wallet address and your email, then what's the harm for trying? I only joined two airdrops and I already received their token. The only question here is, if their coin is worth hodling or not.
Yes they are scams and you're giving platform to scams "just because it's free" ignoring crypto fundamentals and supporting centralized, premined scams like airdrops. They will own most of the coins, distribute some of it as they please (no fairness and transparency) and pump the price with people like you and cash out and repeat.
How can airdrops scam if they gave out free ? I never asked for my private key.
You can leave your Bitcointalk account nickname and email address and this will be enough. If you have easy password less or equal to 7 characters you already lost your Bitcointalk account along with your credentials (email and password) If you use the same password on the email account you already lost email address too. Sometimes your Bitcointalk account can be for sale but most of the times will be used for Signature Campaign. I participated in one AirDrip and regret this, simply saying is not worth it. If you really want to do the best way is to create new account and separate email address just for that to stay safe.
You can also buy (even batch buy) dozens of btctalk accounts and redeem airdrops as many times as you want. It's a terrible initial coin distribution method and shouldn't be taken anywhere near seriously.

The two major attributes of scam Airdrops have already been mentioned which are;
- They ask for compulsory donations.
- And secondly, they request for your private key.
to be honest i think more than fifty percent of the airdrops that i participated in are scams but if the form of the airdrops asked you for your wallet key than beware this is definitely a hacking attempt.

2. They will ask for your private key

We're are just wondering why we should give them a donation, in fact they will give us free coins. Or in the other hand, why they should need our donations when they have a lot of convertible coins in their wallet. With this, mostly people will accused that certain airdrop is a scam. But not only with that scenario, because some airdrops is hardly to find which one is legit or not until we've been involve with them. So, it is better if we really not engage more on airdrop. 1. They will ask you to donate
2. They will ask for your private key

And you are not still learning from it? Take it that most of them will just do the same thing. Don't just join if you feel suspicious and you had seen some irregularity about the airdrop, those standards that you had set shall be seen on them and if not, just jump to another one or much better is don't join any of them anymore so that you can be far from being hacked. Those hacking problems that their balance was gone probably is due to this. Jump to:
