English term or phrase: phantom bid
How would you translate "phantom bid"?

Definition: Phantom Bids are false bids taken by an auctioneer for the purpose of tricking a legitimate bidder into bidding more than he would have bid otherwise. The auctioneer hires Shills to call out the phantom bids. If the phantom bid is the winner, either the lot is hidden and comes back around for a second auction, or the 2nd-highest legitimate bidder is informed that the first bidder was unable to make payment.
