Bogus is a word going back a couple hundred years which refered to counterfeit money and anything else that's fake. It also means wrong, uncool, unfair, unreal, off, messed up. Popularized in the late '80's and early '90's by Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure in which Bill and Ted frequently refer to things as bogus.

Bogue
A wannabe car buyer that shows up on the lot with zero money down and a credit score that is lower than their IQ. A bogue is always separated from reality and nothing but a waste of time for the salesperson.
"They laiddown on the first pencil so I should have known I had a bogue"
