In hacker lexicon, phishhooking is the act of hooking a target of a phishing email. Phishing is sending a malicious e-mail, hoping to steal credentials or other information from an unsuspecting Netizen. Hooking a fish is catching a fish. So if we have phished a valuable corporate target, we "phishhooked" them. It is the hacker's state of having succeeded at a phishing attempt, and a victim's state of compromised security after a phishing attack.
I just phishhooked the CEO of Tesla and discovered he already colonized Mars and Falcon Heavy was launched only to build a plausible cover story for when his kingdom is discovered and we are all forced to abandon Earth and move there.
