siphoners
Those who drain
Siphoners is the plural of siphoner—someone who siphons.
The word appears most often in contexts of theft or illicit transfer: Gas siphoners targeted cars in the parking lot overnight.
It extends to anyone who diverts resources, funds, or energy from their intended destination: corporate siphoners draining pension funds.
