I saw this article on GameSkinny and think it had some good takeaways drawn from the Areal Kickstarter project, which was suspended for being scammy.

If you're a backer, be sure to do your research once you support a project.
- Plug the creator and company's name into google
- Check out their twitter feed/social media accounts
- Have they worked on similar projects in the past or backed other projects?

If you're a creator, be sure to do the following to stay transparent.
- Highlight previous projects you have worked on in the past (and websites your work can be found)
- Include all of your social media accounts
- Never ignore backer emails or comments. Respond promptly
- If you're going to mess up in some way, just come clean! Be open about the production process and any kinks that you may or do run into.
