Re: A new bounty scam

GOLDMA started their bounty campaign in April, and then 1 week before the end (in October) they said they require full KYC meaning:

- Proof of address
- Government issued card
- Selfie holding the ID

Is there any ICO requiring such information from bounty hunters?! To me this is a SCAM to get private details and sell on dark markets. Imagine what they can do with such information! I have never seen anything like this, be careful of these scammers from GOLDMA.

Has anyone experienced something similar from other bounty?

*edit* It stated first that NO KYC REQUIRED FOR BOUNTY, this changed 1 week before the end

There is a possibility that that campaign is scam but no one really knows unless you read something really suspicious in the whitepaper. However, KYC is not a proof that a bounty is a scam.  There are a lot of bounty campaigns that requires KYC. And I have an experience where the campaign ask for a KYC and they gave me the number of tokens they promised.
