Definition
受骗 (shòu piàn) means 'to be cheated or taken in' — it focuses on the victim's experience of being deceived. It is similar to 上当 (shàng dàng), but 受骗 is more formal and often used in written or serious contexts, while 上当 is more colloquial and common in everyday speech. Unlike 骗 (piàn) which is the active verb 'to cheat', 受骗 is always passive.
