click bate

ADJ:
When you get those annoying messages all day long, usually one liners, sometimes more. From a number you've never heard of, so you have to open it, and is written in such away that makes you want to respond WHEN YOU KNOW YOU SHOULDNT.

(It's usually a scam.)

Dean: "Did you get any more annoying messages last night?"
Marv: "Yeah. A one liner from qn unknown number said, "Hey do you want me to get it?""
Dean: "What happened?"
Marv: " I said you figure it out". And I clicked. "

Marv: " II was "CLICK BATE"".

clickbaiter

A person or website that posts eye-catching headlines for stories that aren't very accurate or just plain made up, in the hope that they'll go viral on social media, bringing in ad revenue. Also, a generator of fake news that frequently claims to be doing "satire" when called out for just making up outrageous shit.

He fancies himself a hip satirist, but he's really just a second-rate clickbaiter.
