To prevent yourself from becoming game to these ICO scammers, always double check the ICO contribution address with multiple sources.  When the ICO starts, make sure to check the contribution address on the official website, along with the pinned message on Telegram, and the latest Twitter feed from the company’s official Twitter.  Never blindly trust messages that are being spammed in the Telegram channel claiming to be the official contribution address.  Also, never give in to solicitation on Telegram or through e-mail from people that may look like an admin or support team member.
