How to use "Sneaky" in context?

There's a big difference between being sneaky and being sly. Sneaky is defined as being covert or underhanded in an attempt to achieve a goal. Sly, on the other hand, is simply cunning or foxy. When it comes to being sneaky, there's no better example than a little fib. Fibbing is telling a small fib to someone in order to gain their trust, typically in order to get them to do something you want them to do. It's sneaky because it's not intentional, it's simply a result of being dishonest.
