A big sign of a bounty scam in recent time.

[Senin]

i dont bothery self by looking for scam or trusted bounties,i just follow trusted bounty managers and they will do the job for me because they have more experiance with bounties , good solution

Trusted managers are also cheated. Recently faced with another type of fraud. The bounty detective recently led a bounty campaign for the Bintex Futures project and the team previously sent them their BNTX tokens as escrow. Therefore, the Bounty detective wrote in his bounty thread that they guarantee the receipt of tokens to the bounty hunters after the work is done. Three months have passed, we do not see any tokens. It turns out that the Bintex Futures team turned out to be scammers, they changed their tokens, and the sent ones turned out to be useless and without any price. Now the bounty detective in the telegram says that the Bintex Futures team is joking about them and in every possible way avoids sending them their changed tokens. I have not heard of such a scam even with an escrow.

Bintex Futures are scammers, the bounty pool was very small in my opinion and it shouldn't be a problem for them to pay a well-deserved reward.

@yurez I have read about the Bintex problem. Cases like this show us that no one is safe from scammers, not even bounty managers, what those affected can do is report them in all possible places, especially in Coinmarketcap, so that the Bintex team has enough problems and have to reconsider the payment.

Yes, very often in recent companies or bounty managers deceive us not to pay rewards or reduce them very much, you need something to combat this

[Galley]

We cannot do anything with companies that deceive us. Each time the campaigns have a different face and unfortunately, it is impossible to track this down. And unscrupulous managers do not really care what and who thinks or says about them. They do what they want and nothing happens to them for it. I simply do not participate in the companies of such managers. I work only with those I trust.

[Freemind]

@Galley I think otherwise we can do something against those teams that scam the bounty hunters. We can (and should) report them everywhere and tell people what they have done so they don't do it again. I know it is not a 100% effective method, but it is better than doing nothing.

And how did you create such a trust list? Do you come from your own experience?

Some will just pass by, not in the first one.These are whiners who are ready that they will wipe their feet on them. And there are fighters who will write articles, create groups and invite people there to harm the reputation of the company. I think that's the only way to fight. If there is a lot of haight around, then people will bypass the company.

I am very disappointed if the telegram group admin locks the chat, they don't know that the project is successful because they have a lot of community members and the coins they create can be used by users, I agree if the developers lock the telegram channel then the project is a Fraud project.

[sampoerna]

...but I think that the biggest sign of a bounty scam is the hunters telegram ban by project team for speaking out about the coin/token distributions. ..

I don't think this is. The biggest scam is when the ICO is ended and they disappeared, their social media, telegram, and anything about the project are disappeared. This is truly SCAM.
But about banned from telegram group because of asking for the distribution, I think that the team has warned them or even they have given the announcement about the distributions, asking more and more commonly will be banned because there has been enough ann to distribute

Hi mate, you have to think before blame any bounty manager, because Bounty managers are our representatives. They don't decrease bounty budget, they decrease after they receive direction or order from the team. Maximum times, team cheat with bounty hunters lie Digital Bits(XDB) cheated with Bounty hunters although BM tried his best.

The Recently there was an unpleasant precedent (I don't remember the name of the project, the management was carried out by Bounty Detective) so there the project made a Swap, initially the payment was made in old coins, and after the bounty the pool decreased by 100 times it seems. Total: investors were not affected, but the hunters were deceived. It seems Bounty Detective was never able to get what they(we) needed from those scammers this project.

I agree with this lot of a big sign are bounty scam in recent time  and I want to settled this kind of bounty campaign can stopped in the blockchain to avoid the image of altcoins will not shutdown right away because of illegal scammers joining in the projects campaign.

Every Bounty hunter at some point in time will experience promoting and doing tasks for a poorly run or a scam projects. And that has already been hitting a new heights in recent times. The most important thing I feel every bounty hunter should do firstly is to belong to a progressive bounty community. Then, for each project to be taken on, in-depth research should be careful conducted.

[debra]

I think it will be when we really don't accept the coins as rewards when the project doesn't even list their coin on exchanges, and also when all sources of the projects are missed and we cannot find out about them anymore That is so sad to know it but it is too common
