1. gyp

   Gyp, often considered as a slang or informal term, refers to cheating or defrauding someone. It is generally used as a verb to denote the act of swindling. Be aware, this term can be viewed as offensive because it originates from a derogatory term for the Romani people (Gypsies), implying that they are dishonest or fraudulent. Therefore, it's wise to avoid using such terms in sensitive or formal contexts.
