Just to go on from what Ponyboy said - simple answer is no, but the long answer is yes, slightly, raising your temperature will increase your metabolic rate slightly causing you to burn a modicum of cals from fat, but nothing noticable. Worthless for losing fat IMO.
Not fat loss but you could lose temporary water weight. After a 20 mile run, I was down 5-7 pounds but it crept back up once I rehydrated and ate
A sweatsuit might help though whilst doing cardio but again you're mostly losing water weight.
Dehydration has more negative side effects regarding overall health than positive fat-loss effects.
It doesn't work.

Probably the same affects of a hard sports practice. It's not surprising to see football players, soccer players, boxing, and other athletes losing 5-10 lbs during one work out. Either way you gain it back by the next day if you hydrate enough.

Remember too if you do this you're not only losing water, you're losing electrolytes (mostly sodium) that also need to be replaced when you refuel.
Anyone who recommends a sweat-suit while doing cardio is recommending a practice that can easily put a person in the hospital.

no i mean in like high school, college and pros not the fake wwe shit
I think you missed the point, but nevermind.
Its very unhealthy.
Alot of my friends that cage fight have to lose 5-10 lbs sometimes, and that means throwing on the space suit and jumping rope/running for hours. I sweat just looking at them
Alot of the leagues now are weighing the fighters months in advance to prevent them from dropping alot of weight right before the fight, kids pass out from dehydration and most times can't perform @ 100% and wind up getting injured.
you lose fat by breathing it out and urinating it.
If you could drink and retain a gallon of water you would be about 8 lbs heavier even though you had not really taken in any more food calories. But assuming you are not dehydrated you will eventually excreet and sweat off that gallon of water and lose the 8 lbs.
