Vessel for gullible person (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mug

This clue is a double definition.

'vessel' is the first definition.
(mug is a kind of vessel)

'gullible person' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for mug that I've seen before include "Fool - drinking vessel" , "Slangy victim, by gum" , "Charlie" , "attack" , "Large drinking vessel or slang victim" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
