Can you make a profit from Bitcoin?

Illegal does not necessarily mean profitable.

Botnet's are illegal, and they can make boat loads of money if they do it correctly. Yes, some illegal acts may be profitable... but they are illegal - what money of their own do they actually spend?

Yes you can. their are tons of ways to do so. I am running a free ad supported faucet here http://mycryptcoin.com/. people can get free bitcoins once an hour and the 1000th request gets 5000 times the normal payout

The value was driven down by those wishing to subvert the Bitcoin system (Wall Street), but it's only temporary.
Their value will rise again, so those buying at it's present $3.50/coin can make good profit when it rises to $8.00/coin again...and it definitely will rise.

Don’t care when they say it´s not a real currency, for apparently you can make money on Bitcoins. Just look at today’s value of ~$13,5 per coin. Stats from “http://bitcoincharts.com/markets/” That’s a $10 increase in one year, there is a good profit to be made there, compared to many of today´s companies in for example, the stock market. In these hard financial times whit an unstable market in the world economy. But, as whit all investments there is always a risk. For without any risk comes no reward. You might as well as gaining money, lose it all…

Can somebody please explain to me how a currency can possibly be "fake?"

Bitcoin isn't "fake." Its just "not sponsored by the government." There is a big difference.
