<prompt> Human: A bunch of guys at work were telling me to sign up for this and pay a one time fee of 300 and after that there are these payments called trade alerts that deal with foreign exchange. So it deals with buying and selling of US dollars to make a profit. I told him that I wasnt interested and was wondering if someone could shine a light on this because my gut says dont do it and it would be nice if I could get a second opinion.EDIT: Just got back from work and thank you guys for all the comments and opinions, I really appreciate your time to explain this concept in depth. I will not be joining this company and will continue to stick to my gut.  <response>: 100 certainly its a scam. Think about it. If these people had something That did what they claim, theyd be using it, not trying to sell it for 300.
