If that didn't freak you out and you are still interested, see the new puzzle opportunity below.

Reddit poster "gamerlessorange" thinks the contest is a scam but it does have an official website that states, "Play at your own risk." The site also mentions a second chance prize of $11,239. Not sure why their prize money is so specific.
