Amazon India faces accusations of potentially rigged contests after a user shared screenshots online showcasing their consistent success in winning prizes over the past ten years. An X (formerly known as Twitter) called @Crypt0holicpoet has pointed out that a user Chirag Gupta has managed to win six Amazon India contests in the last ten years. Amazon India frequently organises giveaways and contests.
These events offer participants the opportunity to win Amazon gift cards, gadgets, and other prizes. While thousands of people participate in these contests, the unusual occurrence of one man winning multiple separate contests has fuelled speculation of unfair practices on Amazon India's part. Coincedence or bias @Crypt0holicpoet's online posts detailed how Chirag Gupta has won so many contests.
On October 8th, Amazon India announced Chirag Gupta as the winner of its "Apple Macbook Air M1" contest during the Amazon Great Indian Festival . However, the announcement sparked controversy as an X user, "@Crypt0holicpoet," accused Amazon India of bias. The user cited six instances where Gupta had won other Amazon contests as evidence, claiming that the platform's administrators were favouring their friends and taking a commission for choosing winners.
Chirag Gupta's winning streak in Amazon contests dates back to 2014. Over the past ten years, he has accumulated a variety of prizes, including a fashion hamper, a OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G, a Rs 1,000 gift card, and others. User reaction.
