The title got me curious: how can a bounty manager steal escrowed funds?
The USDT, which this bounty manager escrowed from the project team
Fox Campaigns is not an "escrow", it was a Newbie at the time. Anyone trusting a Newbie as "escrow" doesn't understand what an escrow is for. It should at least be someone you can trust.
Isn't the meaning for escrow is a reputable person who have solid financial background and trustworthy in a community?
It shows bounty spammers don't care at all. Spamming Twitter, spamming Telegram, spamming Youtube and spamming no doubt AI-generated "articles" everywhere else. It's amazing this business model has been active since 2017!
It's astounding that in this day and age the shitcoin bounties are still that popular. I don't venture into those parts of the forum either, and I too was surprised by the number of participants.
Don't confuse the number of people involved with the number of accounts they use

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.
I don't know what's worse: a Newbie spam bounty "campaign manager" who thinks that's worth $1000, or that you think your incompetence to secure payment gives you the reason not to pay the spamming participants while you do pay yourself.
