I believe the answer is:

ruse

'sneaky scheme' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ruse that I've seen before include "Subterfuge" , "Sure to be a trick" , "Plan intended to deceive" , "Trick designed to deceive" , "Cunning plan" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday and the USA Today.
