People/intentionally

Normally, "deceitful" applies to individuals who, often by nature, deceive others by intent. Think of "deceiving" to mean "not what you think it is or as it appears." For example: The cute appearance of a raccoon (mapache) is deceiving, but the animals cannot be deceitful, because they are not human and cannot form intent. “Appearances can be deceiving”
