spoofed
Sent up humorously
Spoofed describes something that has been faked, imitated, or disguised to deceive.
In computing and telecommunications, a spoofed email address or phone number appears to come from a legitimate source but doesn't: The caller ID showed the bank's number, but it was spoofed.
More broadly, spoofed can mean parodied or mocked: The show spoofed every horror movie cliché.
