Soft-baiting

The conscious or unconscious act of leading someone on, but you have no feelings for.

She’s flirting with him all the time but she doesn’t even like him, she’s soft-baiting.

Charge baiting

When a person (particularly a cop) decides that they don't like your demeanor or you as a person, so they say & do things to elevate your emotional response to make you slip up and do something stupid, ultimately leading to you behind bars.

"Yo have you watched that one bodycam video on Code Blue Cam I linked you?"

"Yeah that cop was 100% charge baiting the dude"

Bait

(A paradox)
1. lit, amazing or fye
2. lame, wack or not up to par

Man, that's bait.

I love that. That's bait.
That's bait and now I'm annoyed.
