I still believe in projects with bounty managers in the legendary rank or hero member. Although there is nothing to be sure about a scam project or not through the manager, anyway hero and legendary member still bring the trust.
yes, it is the best step when choosing bounty that will follow. but bounty managers who have rank newbie, not necessarily can not be believed. no loss also if we follow and eventually get scam. and if it turns out the project that he did good and successful, we are losing for not participating just because his rank newbie and think his project is not good
