Wolf in sheep's clothing
(originally posted April 9th, 2006)
Definition: someone that looks friendly, but has a hidden agenda that will be bad for you
Example: Beware of any e-mail you receive that promise things too good to be true, even if it came from people you recognize. Those e-mails may be wolves in sheep's clothing.
Origin: Another Bible-derived saying... Matthew 7:15 "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves."
Chinese Version: 笑裡藏刀﹖
