Back in 2017, many ICO projects pride themselves of having one of the biggest telegram community. Some of them would market it as a proof or sign that many investors believe in their project. People who have been around all know that most members there are airdrop/bounty hunters who only joined to qualify for the reward.
I also saw one
post earlier asking for telegram group members and one of the condition the buyer posted is that it "needs to look real".
Anyway, this post is just a reminder to beginners in crypto. We don't want you to fall for these tricks to lure you into investing into their projects.
Yeah some bounty hunters are asked to be promote their project on their telegram groups and saying good things to the projects. While the crypto newcomers and just joined the telegram group will look into the chats and thought the project is real good, but the newcomers are not doing research to the project yet. This things are happens oftenly.
