Professional TeacherToday's phrase is to be rigged. Now when something is rigged, it is believed that it's operated using some kind of dishonest behaviour to promote a desired outcome. Now, let me just give you some examples to show you what I mean:
So, if we say, for example,
The job vacancy has been advertised in the newspaper but I believe it's been rigged. We all know who's going to win.
The football match was definitely rigged. I don't think the football players were playing in their usual way today.
The competition to win a holiday in the local newspaper has been won by an employee of that newspaper. That was definitely rigged.
