*''[[Encyclopedia Dramatica]]'' - A [[wikipedia:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]]-based site that documents current events and internet culture, with articles on it written in an extremely offensive way, as done for "for the lulz."

*''[[Glory Hole Foundation]]''' - A site disguised as a non-profit evangelical golf club community. The site features a button that supposedly leads the user into the main page. However, when clicked, the site will display a GIF of two men having sex while accompanied by an extremely loud moaning sound; it had its own similar site named Desk Corporate IT, in which users who have an interest in technology are tricked into seeing the same content as GHF shows. | *''[[Glory Hole Foundation]]''' - A site disguised as a non-profit evangelical golf club community.

[[File:Kirk_Johnson.jpg|thumb|200px|[[Goatse]] is one of the earliest shock sites to be used in a bait-and-switch, starting in Goatse.cx in 1999. Origins were made to try to find out who was in the image, which they then identified as gay pornstar Kirk Johnson (pictured) as the man behind the [[Goatse]] image.]] | |||
*''[[Goatse]]'' - An image of a man stretching his anus, originating from the 1999 site Goatse.cx. Since then, the image has often been used as a bait-and-switch prank in which users are trolled into seeing the image or clicking the link to the website. Continuing for five years, it was shut down by [[wikipedia:Christmas Island|Christmas Island]] after a resident filed a complaint against the site, until it was put down in the domain pool in January 2007. The image originated from gap.zip, a.zip file containing images of the same man using extremely large dildos and buttplugs to stretch his anus. The man who was seen in those pictures was identified as Kirk Johnson. | *''[[Goatse]]'' - An image of a man stretching his anus, originating from the 1999 site Goatse.cx.
