Definition
Present participle of bunco: the act of cheating or swindling someone.
Etymology
The -ing form of bunco, maintaining the same etymological root from the confidence game. As bunco became more widely known in the late 1800s, the gerund form documented the ongoing practice of fraud.
Kelly Says
Newspapers in the 1880s-1890s used 'buncoing' to describe professional swindlers in action, making it a word that captures a specific era of organized crime in America.
