A quick definition of shill:

Term: SHILL

Definition: A shill is someone who pretends to be a regular person but is actually working with others to trick people. They might act like they are interested in something or try to convince others to do something, but their real goal is to help the people they are working with. It's like they are playing a part in a play, but their role is to deceive others.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A shill is a person who pretends to be an innocent bystander in a scam or confidence game, but is actually working with the scammers to deceive others.

Example: In a bidding war, a shill might pretend to be a regular bidder to drive up the price of an item. They are secretly working with the seller to make more money.

Explanation: The example shows how a shill can be used to deceive people in a bidding war. The shill pretends to be a regular bidder, but is actually working with the seller to drive up the price of the item. This makes other bidders think that the item is more valuable than it really is, and they end up paying more money than they should. Shills are often used in scams and confidence games to make the scam seem more legitimate and trustworthy.
