Cyberpunked 

When a gamer has been duped into purchasing or preordering a videogame based on a series of misleading marketing practices, advertisements, and press events aimed to build hype for a product. Ultimately with the end result of the game developers overpromising and underselling on an unfinished or incomplete videogame or videogame related product.

The term is derived from the slang punked which refers to a joke or trick played on someone, as well as a parody of the title for the 2020 videogame known as Cyberpunk 2077 which became notorious by its fanbase for pushing out an unfinished game onto the market.
You know that the game isn't going to be able to deliver on all its promise, if you're not more skeptical you'll end up being cyberpunked.

Cyberpunked 

also reffered to as cyberpranked is a result of action where an unsuspecting victim gets completely annihlated.

Getting cyberpunked usually consists of two phases.
The first phase is formally called baiting. Goal of this phase is to make victims drop their guard. This is usually achieved by overpromising, falsely reassuring and by giving expectations without planning to meet them.
When victim get volnerable and hopeful, second phase begins.
In the second phase victim is shown reality that's worse than promised and painfully different from victim's expectations.
That's how victim gets cyerpunked.

For maximum effect T-pose while walking into sunset.

The current record holder is CD Projekt Red that on December 10 2020 cyberpunked 8 million people at once.
