Deception is the action and effect of deceiving someone or fooling yourself with some situation that happens. "I don't know why I am fooling myself by continuing this relationship." "For me, the contest is pure and simple a hoax."
On the other hand, the lack of truth that something has or directly the falsehood of something, is called deception.
Basically, in deception, there is a total absence of truth in what is done, thought or said. In general, cheating is associated with tricks, tricks, with which the purpose of losing the truth is achieved without the person being able to directly and clearly perceive.
It should be noted then that normally the person to whom the deception is directed is especially guided by the deceiver, the person who specifies the deception, into falling into a lie. Now, such an action can be done for the purpose of exercising evil, or on the contrary, someone can be deceived to avoid suffering with the knowledge of any situation.
On the other hand, it is common to be deceived with a humorous motivation or in those cases in which it is directed at a child, to involve the child in a special reality or situation. One of the most common deceptions in which children participate is to instill beliefs such as the existence of Santa Claus, the Three Wise Men, the Pérez mouse, among others.
Inventing work meetings or professional trips are some of the tools used by those who cheat on their child with another third person. However, as a general rule, it is usually discovered in the end and most often a romantic breakup occurs.
When a hoax is aimed at obtaining a financial return, we speak of fraud. This is a crime against property or property: the scammer deceives the victim and makes him give up a patrimonial asset by making him believe that something does not exist. An example of fraud occurs when a person requests a cash advance as the first step in purchasing a car. The scammer says that with that first payment, you can start the process and buy the car. However, the vehicle will never be delivered and the scammer keeps the money.
In addition to all the above, we must emphasize that in the bullfighting world the term trap is also used, but with a meaning that has nothing to do with those exposed so far. Specifically, in this area, that word is used to refer to the crutch that the bullfighter uses to deceive the bull in front of him.
