虚假拍卖 mock auction
〈英〉1.在英国1961年《虚假拍卖法》〔Mock Auctions Act〕中,虚假拍卖是指虽以集中竞价方式销售商品,但将商品低于其最高报价出售给出价人或将部分价款予以退还或赊销;或者将出价权限定于已经或同意购买商品的人;或者将商品抛弃或赠与;2.在英国普通法中,虚假拍卖是指一些人串通起来假充善意出价人,实则只是虚假出价以诱使他人竞价。这种行为构成可被起诉的共谋欺诈罪〔conspiracy to defraud〕。
Mock auction, an auction where items are given away or the right to bid is restricted to persons who have bought or agree to buy goods or one where goods are sold to a person lower than his highest bid. It is an offence to organize such an event under the Mock Auctions Act 1961. Under the Mock Auctions Act 1961, a mock auction is one where during the course of sale (1) any lot to which the Act applies is sold at a price lower than bid, or any part of the price is repaid or credited to the bidder, (2) the right to buy is restricted to those who have bought or agreed to buy one or more articles, or (3) any articles are given away or offered in the form of gifts. Anyone running or helping to run a mock auction could be fined £1,000, imprisoned for not more than two years or both. 以下为相关例句,供参考:

例句4
Here is something about mock auctions. Typically, during the sale, members of the gang operating the scam will pose as customers; they will be given boxes of high-value goods for a very low price, and will pretend to be very pleased with their bargain purchases. In reality, these goods are handed back and forth between the fake 'lucky customers' and the sellers, out of view of the real customers, after each time the con is completed. The fake auctioneer, who is usually the gang's leader, will often be a skilled, practised orator, who will typically be able to win the confidence of a substantial proportion of his potential victims.
以下为虚假拍卖的内容。通常,在销售过程中,操纵骗局的团伙成员会冒充顾客;他们将以非常低的价格获得几箱高价值的商品,并会假装对他们的便宜货非常满意。实际上,每次骗局完成后,这些商品都在假的“幸运顾客”和卖家之间来回传递,而真实顾客看不到。假拍卖者通常是该团伙的头目,是一名技术娴熟、经验丰富的演说家,能够赢得相当一部分潜在受害者的信任。
