Maybe it depends in the success of the project I will not call it scam if you didn't invest any amount of money if just joined bounties and airdrops

basically a scam is when a project has achieved success in sales but does not continue to develop and is left behind by its team and community.
if we are only incorporated in the bounty and airdrop will also be able to feel that it is a scam or not, because without these two things I think a project will also not be able to develop bigger.

Personally, I wouldn't call that a scam. A scam business, or a fraudulent scheme, is a deliberate attempt to steal money from people in some way, thought out right from the very beginning. If the development team fails to deliver but their intention ("motive") wasn't to steal money, and the community then abandons the project, it just dies like many other startups do these days. Indeed, for investors it is a small difference as in both of these case (scam and not scam) they lose their hard-earned money, but, for example, in court, if it ever comes to that, it may be a decisive factor.
