What the Chinese equivalent of "sucked in"?
In the sense of being satisfied/happy/delighted at someone's misfortune. Informal.
Example:
A: Did you know that John was caught cheating on the test?!
B: Really!? Haha sucked-in!
The closest in Chinese I've heard of is
幸災樂禍 but it seems a bit formal. Any thoughts?

After asking an Australian friend, I clarified 'sucked in', which still means 'cheated, you believed me', like:
A: Santa Claus is outside on the lawn!
B: (Looks outside, but there is no Santa Claus out there) Where?
A: Haha, (you were) sucked in (by me)
There is no sense of gloating, just a dumb joke
sucked in: 骗: A:哈哈, 笑话,我骗你哦!

Is 'sucked in' Oz speak? I am not familiar with this use of sucked in. ‘sucked in' as cheated, 骗 I know and everyone knows the American 'that sucks'. How does 'sucked in' come to have the meaning you attribute to it?
