This Gambit was popularized by Kokusho of MTGS, in the IRC Channel #mafia. It consists of a Cop claiming Tracker on someone they have a guilty result on in hopes of drawing out more information. While the cop has no idea that the person in question targetted anyone, it is typically tantamount to suicide for scum to claim that the Gambiter is lying and that they targetted nobody. It's an unusually effective gambit, even if the one claiming tracker is known for using this gambit. After all, "Maybe he really is a tracker this time," while being a WIFOM, is a possibility too strong to ignore.
