Scam someone out of something
I read it on the following sentence:
... to scam people out of their cash.
I didn't find any entries on "scam out of" as a phrasal verb in online dictionaries.
Should I interpret "scam" and "out of" as separate constructions here?
Like "to scam" people until it runs "out of their cash"?
Thanks!
