There are folks with these traits who lurk at many websites online and Soup has had their fill of them as well. One in particular pops up from time to time!

Some days at the Soup I can spy a poet who is very sly. He'll circle his prey with good things to say, pretending to be a nice guy. If you see him around here of late, just beware! You could be on his plate. Small fish he fries with all his lies. Be a big fish; don't fall for his bait. For "What's Bugging Me" Poetry Contest of Kim Rodrigues

This is a great limerick for the contest - it does communicate the feeling of a shark circling its prey-

Hmm. I have no idea who you're talking about (assuming it's an actual person), but what a unique take on the "Shark in the Soup" concept. Very nice.
