Embolatar
To give someone the runaround, waste their time with vague detours, and never actually resolve anything. In Colombia, "embolatar" is what bureaucracies do best: you go in with a simple question and come out two hours later more confused than when you started. It can also mean distracting someone while something shady happens behind their back.
