- In Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, humbug is a slang term referring to making unreasonable or excessive demands from one's family or other connections. While resource-sharing is a common cultural practice among Aboriginal communities, "humbugging" has a negative connotation and is distinct from the traditions of sharing and strong sense of community Aboriginal culture is based upon. Examples of humbugging can range from family arguments and stress related to family obligations to abuse and theft. Not responding to the requests or demands of humbugging can result in assault and payback violence. Humbugging stems from a variety of factors, including the socioeconomic context and cultural context of Aboriginal communities. It is also closely associated with elder abuse, in particular with financial elder abuse as a prevalent examples of how humbugging occurs. The issue of humbugging has been explored in community legal centres, banks and financial institutions as well as in government inquiries. (en)
