Conjure?

There's a commonly used chinese phrase -- "做贼喊抓贼". Translated into english, it means the thief calling out to others to catch the thief (obviously someone else and not the thief himself).

And another one goes, "若要人不知, 除非己莫为". Translated into english means, if you do not wish others to know, do not do it. For eyes and ears are all around, your doings will not go unnoticed. Even if you attempt to cover up by spinning tall tales, "纸是包不住火的". It means, paper will not be able to keep fire under wraps.

Do not malign others of doing wrong to you when you were the one who guilty of it first.
