Uncover swindle (6)

I believe the answer is:

fleece

I believe this is a double definition.

'uncover' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'swindle' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for fleece that I've seen before include "Con" , "Covering" , "Cheat" , "Woolly hair of sheep" , "winter coat" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Telegraph.
