Hmmm..
I do believe I have just been dobbed on...
Can it be true? Watch out, or I will stomp my foot!
;)

'DOB', From the OED:
*2.* To betray, inform against. Const. /in/. /Austral./ /slang./

*1959* BAKER /Drum/ (1960) 105 /Dob in/, to betray, to focus blame on another; esp. /to dob someone in/. *1963* E. THOMPSON /Lawyer & Carpenter/ vi. 100 Any time you run outside the law, I won't dob you in, either. *1964* /Punch/ 18 Nov. 750/2 Those Canberra wowsers have really dobbed us in this time. *1970* M. KELLY /Spinifex/ vii. 113 You won't dob me into the demons.
