Suffer as a result of interfering (3,4,7,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

get ones fingers burnt

'suffer as a result of interfering' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for get ones fingers burnt that I've seen before include "Suffer through one's own actions" , "Suffer as a result of interfering" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
