This is from January 2020 in India: [1] > Still, we can joke. So, apparently can Netflix. > Because when a Twitter user in India posted a clearly fake offer--a "free Netflix subscription for six months" if you'd just be one of the first 10,000 people to call a certain telephone number--Netflix (actually Netflix India) replied: "This is absolutely fake. If you want free Netflix please use someone else's account like the rest of us." [2] Netflix knows that many users share their accounts. Since Netflix is also the lone streaming service in India where the pricing is very close to the US prices (compared to Amazon, Disney and Apple whose India prices are substantially lower than the US prices), anecdotally, there is a lot of account sharing happening. It's a tough question whether Netflix would prefer account sharing or piracy, since it has many great original shows and has also increased the amount of local/regional high quality content (in India) that's talked about or shared around. Netflix has also been experimenting with mobile-only lower priced plans in India (still costlier than its competitors mentioned above). If account sharing is banned or made very inconvenient, people would get the content through other means.
