You'd be surprised how many times I've heard of this happening. Personally, I'd never do it, because something seems off about it, but I know many guys who've done it. Once, even, it blew up in his face, and I was laughing for days.
On the other hand, my father "got" my mother by doing this...(that relationship didn't end well..).
I have, though, told a guy interested in my current interest that the girl was "claimed"...but I meant it as a joke of sorts...and she didn't seem to mind.

Well, if you do it, YOU might be this guy in that moment.
It's a gamble. It'll either go REALLY WELL, and she'll be smitten or it'll go very poorly, she'll call you out in front of others ("Oh really? You wish!"), and you get to slink home in shame.
Is this after you've been dating for awhile? I'd be thrilled if the guy I've been dating introduced me as his girlfriend. But I can definitely see how it could be a risky move if you guys aren't on the same page.
I mean, I had been dating MrsCPG for six weeks. We went to a concert and she started talking to some college girls while I went for the beers. When I got back, one girl looked up at me and said, "Man, your girlfriend is soooo cool." MrsCPG didn't bat an eyelash to that.
So when I sat down, I said, "I guess you're my girlfriend now. She made it official." "I guess so," was all she said. It was a pretty great moment.
It really depends - is it purposeful or by accident? Is it a possessive thing? And after how long?
Anecdote time:
I was seeing a guy, fairly exclusively, for months but we hadn't actually made any sort of agreement or had any talks about the relationship. Then, one day, I was meeting his mother (casual situation, it wasn't like some grand introduction) and he slipped and called me his girlfriend. There was some stammering after that, but overall it was pretty funny. We decided to have a real, adult relationship after that.
