If you don't have that time to assess and just quickly jump into any project to participate, there's no one to blame,
it's so happened that this market have both good and bad it's participants decision to join or forget about it. Your
action needs to properly assess everything before you ride with the project.
I have a different mindset than you, if I don't have time to evaluate something, I won't waste any more of my time on such things. In general, it is absurd to unintentionally work for projects with fraudulent purposes and ask them to pay, it is clear that we find such projects very risky, but not without effort spent will be duly rewarded.
