Their are lot of ICO right now are coming some of them are scam on when the time of ICO ends. So if we want to be aware of those kind of ICO must better to read more some of them information they have. And take a look sometime about the whitepaper and the roadmap of the ICO because some of them one of the important thing if the ICO are scam or not. And the team also if they are active always and have some improve of the ICO.
Indeed most ICO's are scams and I agree on most of the tips listed on previous posts to spot scam projects but I have to mention also those
AIRDROP projects that were giving away free coins supposedly consisting a large portion of total supply to attract participants!
Most of them don't have enough transparency and once community bite this scheme, they tried to list the project to exchanges and will do
pump and dump to victimize innocent people and once they get what they want, they leave the project without any trace - a classic exit scam! I think the community should always be vigilant about this type of scam.
