I have seen situations where bounty hunters are side-tracked after providing their services towards the success of ICO projects. It is either they are paid less as against initial agreement, or they are not paid at all. I would have mentioned the names of some of those projects, which succeeded, are already listed and yet did not pay bounty hunters. Some things really need to change. We are to be treated with respect, most especially the honest bounty hunters.
It is just the reality that some projects just want to take advantage of the bounty hunters willing to promote their projects without giving anything in return. If it would have been a true job that you are working with then you can approach the labor department for such things to complain but unfortunately, it doesn't exist here so we just have to hope that the bounties we are participating in would pay us the right amount they have promise to us. All we can do is raise awareness to others by posting in scam accusation and move on because most probably, they would not turn their head again and pay the participants.
It sounds like a very unreliable campaign to begin with it that is the case. Try to be a part of legitimate trustworthy projects with trustyworthy bounty managers.
