Deceived and got rid of by the house (6)
I believe the answer is:
hoaxed
'deceived' is the definition.
(hoaxing is a kind of deceiving)
'got rid of by the house' is the wordplay.
'got rid of' becomes 'axed' (I've seen this in another clue).
'by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'the house' becomes 'ho' (abbreviation for house).
'axed' put after 'ho' is 'HOAXED'.
'and' is the link.
(Other definitions for hoaxed that I've seen before include "Deceived or defrauded" , "Taken for a ride" , "Fooled or deceived" , "Fooled and swindled" .)
