It'll be just like Kickstarter. Yes there is fraud and yes there are well meaning failures but you also get huge successes like Oculus (and many others).

Just as there are sure to be well publicized stories about people getting fleeced -- there will be stories about other people getting rich.

The quantities of money are larger, which will attract a different class of scammer.

That does not change what I said.

Yes, there will be scams. And there will be successes.
