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.
We already learned through these bad experiences, so that means it's a new start for us in dealing with certain project of any bounty participation. Be vigilant on several attempts which brings yourself towards scammers, and possible data privacy breaching, because it maybe used for any crimes against you.
