Gamestopped 

When a company, person, or similar does the bait-and-switch. When you are expecting one thing, but get something completely different. Another word for getting shanked.
A common situation where this can be used is when you really want a new video game console, but the only people who have them are scalpers who charge 150%+ over retail. "You’ll get Gamestopped if you buy from those people.”
