Smoke And Mirrors: In internet slang, “smoke and mirrors” refers to a deceptive or misleading tactic used to create the illusion of something that may not necessarily be true or real.
Example 1: Someone may claim to have a luxurious and extravagant lifestyle on social media, constantly posting pictures of expensive cars, lavish vacations, and designer clothes. However, behind the scenes, it could all be smoke and mirrors, as they might have rented the cars, edited their vacation photos, or borrowed the clothes for the sole purpose of creating a false image.
Example 2: In the world of online reviews, a company may use smoke and mirrors by posting fabricated positive reviews about their products or services. These reviews aim to deceive consumers into thinking that the company is reputable and trustworthy, even if it’s not the case in reality.
