An attempted deception by telling the truth (6,5)

I believe the answer is:

double bluff

(Other definitions for double bluff that I've seen before include "Intricate deception" , "Action that is genuine but seems not to be" , "Attempt to deceive by telling the truth" , "Extreme attempt to deceive" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
