For a combo

A charitable organization in the Avrechim neighborhood in Jerusalem that holds a lot of Torah has distributed the option of paying 220 NIS to a seminary, and they register those who pay as students, and in return, the payer can get a student card and pay very little, if any, on public transportation in the country.
Someone pointed out to them that this was exploitation and a scheme and not honest.

They replied that everything was legal.

I saw the registration form for this seminar and there are details there, including a name, email address, payment method, etc., and no mention of their studies. The registrant assumes that if I search somewhere, I will find some kind of course that I can hear about from them online, etc., but the form only lists a name, email address, payment method, etc.

Should I withdraw from this combination?

If it’s legal, then it’s hard to ban. But of course, anyone who guards their soul will stay away from such deception. It’s likely that the legislator simply didn’t think of this loophole. On the face of it, I’m almost convinced it’s illegal.
