I got scammed by this project called temtum. Signed up for their bounty months ago, posting for their campaign, filling up 2 kyc forms and pushing for its deadline, and now they are telling me i didnt pass it. It is not only me who encountered this. Hello Richard Dennis.
Why would you risk your personal information just for a few bucks in a bounty campaign? Its not even worth it. You're just putting yourself in grave danger your personal information might be used for something illegal over the internet. If you're not aware, there are online loans that only requires a selfie with ID verification. It could be used on that transactions. Im just sighting one example although there are still a lot in the internet.
Yes it is true what you say, if we think about giving out our personal information by filling in the form kyc and who knows who will read and use what personal information we have does have the risk of being misused. But, many bounty projects require participating people to fill in the form kyc to be able to get tokens from what they have done, and here of course I think the bounty hunters will give their information by filling out forms to get their tokens and they certainly don't want anything what is done is useless and unpaid.
It's really suck to have that requirements and participants didn't have a choice since they will not get paid if they will not provide their KYC informations and actually I'm one of those guys who forc to do so that's why for now I'm avoiding it since if I insist to continue to provide my KYC details for just a shitcoin for sure I will encounter a future big problem for doing that.
And now I'm not joining on any of them if they required and people should do it also to avoid self harm.
