I believe the answer is:

mislead

(Other definitions for mislead that I've seen before include "Cause someone to believe something is not true" , "Fool" , "Cause someone to have a false belief" , "Give a wrong impression to (someone)" , "Take someone in the wrong direction" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
