get played
To be misled, deceived, or manipulated for someone else's needs, ends, or benefits. You paid $150 for this? Man, this piece of junk is barely worth 20 bucks! You got played, dude. Can't you see that his flattery is totally insincere? He just wants to sleep with you—you're getting played! Mom, please do not get played by strangers asking for money over the phone.
