EN: To be cheated; to be deceived
This is the feeling you get when you check your change from the tindahan and realize you're short 20 pesos. Or when you thought you were getting a legit "branded" item from an online seller, but you received a "Brenda" item instead. Basically, the feeling of being on the losing end of a scam.
The prefix 'ma-' here indicates being the recipient of the action of 'daya' (cheating).
