Deceived and given the chop after half an hour (6)
I believe the answer is:
hoaxed
'deceived' is the definition.
(hoaxing is a kind of deceiving)
'given the chop after half an hour' is the wordplay.
'given the chop' becomes 'axed' (I've seen this before).
'after' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'half an' suggests halving the letters.
'hour' with half the letters taken is 'ho'.
'axed' put after 'ho' is 'HOAXED'.
'and' is the link.
(Other definitions for hoaxed that I've seen before include "Fooled or deceived" , "Taken for a ride" , "Deceived or defrauded" , "Fooled and swindled" .)
