How it's used
Focuses on the state of being a victim of a scam or lie rather than the act of deceiving someone else. It often appears in formal warnings or news reports about fraud, though it is perfectly acceptable in daily speech when discussing someone who has fallen for a trick.
Examples
You must not get cheated.

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with 呃, which is the active verb for cheating someone. While 呃 is used to describe the perpetrator, 受騙 is used to describe the victim's experience.
