When I do Airdrop project, in my opinion, I notice that there are many scam project, for example:
1. 50% project about ETH platform is scam or trash due to the fee of creation (it's too cheap).
2. Some airdrops require us to charge fee GAS before they pay airdrop coin. We should care with it.
3. Some airdrops send us an email to KYC and follow us to a fake side.
...
Any scam methods, please share your experiences in this thread. Thankyou so much

A lot of "airdrops" made on typeform these days, most of them scams, asking to "confirm ETH address" and redirecting to fake MEW sites. It really is insanely important to pay attention to URLs and to NEVER give away private keys.
I decided to go through with a fake "KYC" once - made a brand new ETH address and completed the "verification" by submitting private key. Never heard from them again.
If you ever decide to go for a selfdrop/raindrop ("send X ETH to Y address and receive Z tokens" type of airdrops) always (and I mean ALWAYS!) check the receiver's address on Etherscan. It's easy to find out if the address actually holds the tokens they promise or it's just someone's way of collecting free ETH from naive airdrop hunters.
