Plot Haiti conman concocted (11)

I believe the answer is:

machination

'plot' is the definition.
(I know that machination is a type of plot)

'haiti conman concocted' is the wordplay.
'concocted' is an anagram indicator.
'haiti'+'conman'='haiticonman'
'haiticonman' is an anagram of 'MACHINATION'.

(Another definition for machination that I've seen is " Plot".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
