A person who foists; someone who tricks others into accepting fake or unwanted things.
Formed from 'foist' plus the agent suffix '-er' meaning one who performs the action. Reflects the Dutch criminal terminology that gave us the verb.
A 'foister' was a specific type of con artist in Renaissance London—someone skilled enough to slip bad goods or counterfeit coins into your hand so smoothly you wouldn't notice until later.
