How it's used

This idiom is used to describe the entire process of falling for a deception, from the initial lure to the final realization of being cheated. It carries a slightly more dramatic weight than simply saying 俾人呃, often implying that the victim was naive or blinded by greed. It is frequently used as a warning to others to stay vigilant against potential scams.

Common mistake

Learners often mistake this for a simple verb like 呃, but it functions more like a descriptive state of having been successfully manipulated. Avoid using it to mean a single act of lying; it specifically refers to the outcome of being trapped or swindled.
