impostor.
The deceived and the deceiver are his. --Job xii. 16.
Syn: {Deceiver}, {Impostor}.
Usage: A deceiver operates by stealth and in private upon
individuals; an impostor practices his arts on the
community at large. The one succeeds by artful
falsehoods, the other by bold assumption. The
faithless friend and the fickle lover are deceivers;
the false prophet and the pretended prince are
impostors.
