"Cheat (one) out of" nghĩa là lừa đảo, đánh cắp tài sản.

Ví dụ
Cheating isn't fair. Think how it feels to be cheated out of something, as Ben was.

Millionaire cheats scammed (lừa đảo) the show out of £5million in a more sophisticated plot (âm mưu tinh vi) than Charles Ingram and his wife.

So, when he saw Jack riding upon the cow, he guessed that he was going to sell it, and knowing Jack's easy, simple disposition (ý muốn), he determined (quyết định) to cheat him out of the cow.

But he enthusiastically (nhiệt tình) told tales of cheating by others, including spitballer (tay ném bóng) Gaylord Perry, and didn't seem to feel that he had been cheated by the cheaters who probably cheated him out of many victories.
