What happened:: I have received numerous complaints about Fox Campaigns, the bounty manager who managed the 5-week Shinescan Coin bounty. The USDT, which this bounty manager escrowed from the project team, was supposed to be distributed to the participants one/two weeks after the campaign ended, which was after October 14th.
I have already contacted this bounty manager on Telegram, whose username is
@Riad_FoxTeam, and he is the leader of the group
@foxcampaigns. He informed me that he lost the total amount of 1100 USDT during trading. According to him, he bought Aevo tokens at $3 each, and the token lost 80% of its value, leading to the loss of the funds that were supposed to be distributed to the bounty hunters. I asked him why he did this, as he was supposed to distribute the USDT to the participants without risking it in trading. He said that he and his friend believed they could double the amount. He told me that he would recover the lost amount when the bull run approached soon. I told him that it’s not the participants’ fault to bear the consequences of his recklessness and control over their funds, but he has now stopped responding. I will include the BM chat and the TX hash below.

Months have passed, and when participants asked him about the distribution date, he said 'soon.' He has also restricted posting in his official Telegram group to prevent participants from claiming their rights.
This is a very bad mistake my brother!
1. Shine scan bounty campaign was not escrowed.
2. We agreed payment in SSC token and not USDT.
3. After the bounty was over, the project owner said they can't pay in token anymore, so they wanted to pay in USDT but they paid only $1100 and not $8000. Our bounty management fee is $1000, and Shine scan never paid our fee, so we used the amount received as our fee! And we can't distribute $100 USDT to more than 300 participants.
4. UNTIL NOW, still Shine scan never paid the remained amount!
I wonder why you gave us a red flag? The project owner he is the one who never paid the bounty pool as we agreed, he paid only $1100 and our fee is $1000, so it's like he paid only $100. We even allowed our participants to ask directly in the SSC community about the reward pool.
This is a mistake, we are not scam.
