Hatfishing is a practice where a man purposely deceives a potential romantic partner by wearing a hat on every date to hide his rapidly receding hairline.
"She went on dozens of dates with Tom before it occurred to her that she had never seen him without his Ducati hat on. Her friends were right - she was being hatfished."

When someone on a dating site wears a hat in all their pictures to conceal the fact that they are bald.
This guy is wearing either a cowboy hat or a bandana in every picture. I think he is hatfishing me. He said to send a selfie so I texted him a picture of Betty White.

A hatfish is a boy or girl who looks very good when wearing a hat, but when people see them without the hat its like they're a completely different uglier person.
I saw the boy from the party the other day, and he was way uglier. I can't believe he hatfished me.
