A strange red envelope has landed- but not in your mailbox, but in flights, lounges, hotels, minds of people and now across social media. No sender. No instructions. Just one line: “In the 6 hours you were travelling, did your money make more money?”

It all began with a mystery man singing about a secret society mid-flight, followed by the sudden appearance of these red envelopes that reportedly seal destinies. Some claim the message inside the envelope vanished, others say a man swallowed this envelope in panic. A few ended up on an Instagram handle @red.envelope.society that gives no answers, only more riddles.

From business travellers to Gen Z explorers, everyone’s asking: What is the Red Envelope Society?

Curious flyers across Indian airports have started receiving these red envelopes, often accompanied by a cryptic melody or a note hinting at wealth secrets. Some reported the envelopes self-destruct. Others claimed they led to coded messages online. And now the Instagram handle has quickly become a hub of speculation — amassing over 200,000 followers in a matter of days.

An instagram user, @nirjaparekh16 reported finding this envelope in her flight’s seat pocket with the message “In the 6 hours you were travelling, did your money make more money?.” Surprisingly, the same message has started flashing across digital hoardings at several city airports, making people extremely curious. From conversations in lounges to trending Instagram & X posts, the Red Envelope Society has become the talk of every terminal and town.

Is this a new-age financial cult? A powerful stock market network? A secret club? Or just the most inventive citywide treasure hunt India has seen in a while?

Who is behind it? A secret investment collective? A performance art experiment? Or something much bigger?

Whatever it is, the Red Envelope Society has built a lot of curiosity and everyone is hooked.
