Indian Erotica Writing Competition Offers INR 2500 Prize, But is it Legit? Here’s What We Found Out And The Mysterious Claims!

Yesterday evening I found a new writing competition is catching attention for its unnecessarily bold promises: cash prizes? exclusive brand hampers? For Indian erotica writers? Is this for real? Hosted by an instagram page @theredroom.official and sponsored by queer model & activist platform, @likeatvSOU, the THAT'S BOLD OF US Erotica Writing Competition is pushing the boundaries of indie literary contests with promises of INR 2500 cash and other rewards. But is this opportunity legit? Can someone please help verify this claim?

Here’s What You Should Know:

Real Cash Prizes? With INR 2500 offered to the top winner, some might wonder if this is too good to be true. Sou (@likeatvSOU) has posted his phone number publicly on his account, giving an air of transparency, but how many have actually reached out to confirm if he’ll pay up?

Breaking Taboos: Erotica remains a taboo in many circles in India, so what does it mean for an independent platform to promote such a competition? Is this contest a brave step towards normalizing erotica as a genre in India, or just a clever gimmick to pull in attention?

Community Credibility: For those concerned about legitimacy, we recommend checking Sou’s background. Known for his LGBTQIA+ activism, he’s been vocal in the community, but has he delivered on promises in past campaigns? Are there testimonials from past participants or winners of similar competitions?

Anonymous Entries Welcome: Interestingly, entrants can use pen names, making this a rare chance for writers to explore erotica anonymously. But will the competition respect these boundaries? It’s worth asking: How will the competition handle personal data?

So, is this contest an exciting new way to celebrate uninhibited creativity, or is it just a risky click? Only time will tell, but if you’re interested, registration is open until December 1, 2024. More details at https://forms.gle/S3iWn3hgqin42aCP7.

Before the mods punish me I urge you to explain to me what the game is here. Theres no entry free. So what's the scam exactly?
