Promoshing

A portmanteau of "promise" and "mosh"
'Pro-mah-shing'

Listing something desirable on an online local selling platform (Such as Marketplace or Craigslist) at an obviously undervalued price with the sole intention of trying to get multiple people to rush to the seller, and hoping the desperate buyers will get into a physical altercation to buy the product, for the seller's own entertainment.
Kyle: "Bro!! Someone just listed a MINT well maintained 1991 Honda CR-X on Marketplace for $2K! There's no way this is real."

Sam: "It might be real, but it sounds like the seller is promoshing. If we get there in the next 30 minutes, it might still be there, but you will likely have to fist fight several people for the chance to buy it."

Pacmoshing

Pacmoshing, also known as pacmanning is when at a concert, you stretch your arms out to make the shape of pacmans mouth, with your hands made into fists, you hit your fists together whilst shouting OM NOM NOM and go through the crowd 'eating' people like this.

Created by Kirsten Hobson, who planned to do it at a Megadeth + Testament concert on the 18th February 2009, with friends Benjamin Brown, Daniel Brown and Bethany O'Brien.
Shall we go pacmanning/pacmoshing at Megadeth? HELL YEAH!
