There is no way that all of them make a success and some of them are scams.
It is a challenge to select the good ones nowadays.

I think that every bounty hunter will face this problem because no one knows if the softcap will be reached, if the team is really always updated, the project is good. Unless we read their whitepaper so we can have a lot of information that can help us to see if the token has really a potential. Always remember that you should do your own research regarding to this bounties. Thank you
I shall admit that more and more ICOs nowadays are cancelling their projects, or doesn't reach their softcap. But yeah we cannot blame them for not paying if they haven't got money for development. But scam projects really make me angry
How can you be safe? From this no one is protected.Nobody gives you guarantees when you join the bounty.Now there is a lot of ICO compared to the last year-hence, and scammers more and payments are less.You need to get used to this.Because of this, by the way, many do not want to participate in the bounty-no one wants to waste time.
There will always be failed project and scam ICOs. As an investor or bounty hunter, the responsibility lies on you to effectively scrutinize what you want to invest your time, money and effort on.
I have been doing bounties for some time and I have encountered some bounty effort that are not paid for.
1. Hashcard - scam exit
2. Blackfolio - did not reach softcap
3. BCharity - did not reach softcap
4. Safein - project is cancelled
5. Impressio - scam exit
6. Root blockchain - didn't get enough private investors
I learned a lesson here. I have to be more selective in the future in choosing bounties, as much as choosing an ICO to invest.
Do you have any similar experience? Please share so that others may learn.

I have heard a friend who have experienced the same not one friend but many. I feel sorry for them because I know how hard it is to do bounty campaigns and then end up scam and will not pay. I don’t know why fake ICOs are spreading like viruses and sad that it is very hard to identify which is which. We must all be careful in choosing a good ICO to avoid being a victim.
In the last 4 months I have participated in 20 bounty and 10 of them ended up with a scam but I am grateful because there are 4 bounty that I have joined that generate big profits,
That's why it's better to try than nothing since there are camps who can give us a one time jackpot.
It is very sad seeing bounty campaigns you are partaking turning into scam or failed to raise funds to be able to start it building. I wouldn't blame those ICO's that fail to raise funds they can still make up in some other ways and give back to the community specially to those who help the project know. But it is a waste of time, effort and investments for those projects who have potentials and backed up by great community but opt to run away with million of dollars came from hard earn money of people trusting the projects. Better be careful next and keep moving on..
Yes, i do agree on your statement. It so hard that the hard work, effort and time was't paid off. It just learn form any experiences. Know more about ICO's projects don't worry because there are lot of them could be trusted.Actually you're right but we can't avoid that and maybe we should be more selective upon joining so that our effort and hardwork will paid off, But lets presume that we will not get paid always so that the feeling will not be more worst if bounty will not pay us.

You are not the only one who experienced this unfortunate jobs joining bounty is a little bit risky and no assurance so its better to join bounty with a successful presale and managed by the high ranks managers for a good chance of success in the campaigns.
For me, I'd rather spend a lot of time researching the gift of follow-up. It's more efficient and time-saving than joining all the ICOs but ending with a scam,
Really Impressio has already turned into a scam? I keep on doing report on their bounty without knowing anything about the scam issue. Fortunately I bumped in to this post and find out that Impressio ran away and leaving everyone behind empty handed. There should really be a bodies of law that would punish all those trash projects.
In the market of cryptocurrencies you need to defend yourself and no one is going to do it for you, while you are correct when you say that they are scammers that should be punished you need to do your part as well, and if you do not, then you are going to be scammed in the future once again.
f*cking scamers, I also often participate in projects that do not pay, it's sad. I try to study the ico very carefully and learn the opinion from my friends.
I had a first hand experienced when i participated in the Bitpaction Bounty, the program was suppose to last for close to 7 weeks but the team decided to stop the campaign without prior notice. As if that was all, all stakes and reward at the end of the campaign was later slashed and reduced and their reasons was that nothing was original in it. It didn't stop there, till date no news about Bitpaction and their team, bounty hunters still have not been rewarded and the good news is the Bitpaction exchange is currenctly struggling. Even as i decided to participate in some bounties that might have attained their softcap, some still find it difficult to pay rewards.
Sad to hear that. I've also experienced that and I believe that you can find good and promising campaign and will pay your effort. There's a lot of scam bounties out there just be careful in choosing project. Sometimes we cannot really avoid scam project because they run very well during the campaign.
Number of scam bounty campaign is increasing the same like number of scam ICO project. I think it's really hard to avoid joining scam bounty campaign. At first if they wanna attract bounty hunter, they'll get a legit bounty manager manage their bounty campaign so a lot of bounty hunters will believe that it's a good bounty campaign to join because it's being managed by a legit bounty manager. I think to avoid joining we should check carefully project behind bounty campaign which we're going to join 
Yep I have met some scam bounties in the past, and it wasted so much my time and effect. I have been very stressful. Now I choose campaign carefully, not do everything I see in thread "bounties".
Ive already experience 5 bounty campaigns that went to scam,same scenario when the campaign is already near to end it will go to scam, and no update coming from the team.
It's time to understand and identify for yourself the general principles of participation in the bounty. Do not participate in bounty campaigns of managers who do not filter projects, but take everything in a row. Do not participate in bounty campaigns of projects that have 100 followers in social networks.
It really hurts when you involve yourself in an ICO that does not pay. I did a video for a coin called Kurecoin, the project of the team was very promising. At the end of the ICO I have been rewarded nothing on bountyHive. The reason was my views were low. I advise anyone here, if you are participating in a video campaign, make sure you share your video to reach more audience.
Most of the ICO team hesitating to list their token on the exchange since the marketplace condition is low. So you need to wait until the marketplace recover from the investment and you can take the work effort to the other btc or eth payable campaign works mate.
Please verify the good bounty which can reach its hard cap that will be good to work with your hard efforts mate. Kindly ensure the legitimacy of the project and work with it.
