'''4811''' [[συκοφαντέω]] ''sukophanteo soo-kof-an-teh’-o''

from a compound of [[4810]] and a derivative of [[5316]]; v; TDNT- 7:759,1100; {See TDNT 760 } [[Verb]]

[[AV]]-accuse falsely 1, take by false accusation 1; 2

:'''1)''' to accuse wrongfully, to calumniate, to attack by malicious devices
:'''2)''' to exact money wrongfully
::2a) to extort from, defraud

At Athens those were "sukophantia" whose business it was to inform against any one whom they might detect exporting figs out of Attica; and as sometimes they seemed to extort money from those loath to be exposed, the name "sukophantes" from the time of Aristophanes down was a general term of opprobrium to designate, a malignant and base accuser from love of gain.
