It is really hard to detect scammed bounty campaign. After completing all the requirements to be able to get accepted in a bounty campaign, spending much time to participate in forums and not to mention carrying their banners, completing all the tasks and reports then all of a sudden you will just find out that you have been scammed already. luckily I am not the only one but to think all participants did the same efforts as well as you did. But it is really happening, lesson learned and could be just charge it to experience and move on. If we could only find out at early stage if we were in to scam or a legit bounty campaign. Who would really know anyway?
That's right, I also find it very difficult to detect a scam campaign because I have been trapped in it several times, it is very disappointing because it really wastes time but even so I will never stop being a bounty hunter because I'm sure there will be a good bounty program and will give me a lot of benefits especially later when the market has recovered because at that time there will be lots of good campaigns and successful projects
