It's bit slangy. I guess standard would be "Someone tricked me." You can say they used you as a cat's paw. They made you their stooge.

Christine ChristieIf so, what does it mean?

Someone deceived you into doing what they wanted you to do.

Christine Christie"Someone played me."

Usually there is another phrase:

Someone played me for a fool.

They treated me as if I were really gullible and easily swayed.
