Paid signal groups
Groups, often in chat apps, that sell "VIP" buy calls for a monthly fee.
- What it means
- The organisers can buy before a call and sell to members who buy after it; win screenshots are easy to fake, and the fees come in whether the calls work or not.
- What to watch
- Claims like a "90% win rate", screenshots of big wins without a full record, deleted losing calls, and pressure to renew or upgrade quickly.
- How Compass-Alpha uses it
